<p>I've now bonded the plastic bushes into both my PJ spring tops and lower leg top joint.<br>
The footplate bearings both have my deep groove ball bearing assemblies in and the hoof bearings are as supplied.<br>
<br>
Made a video to show how I did the fitting and bonding, but please remember that I am still testing these joints. All the new joints have had about ½ hour of bocking so far and still seem smooth and rattleless. But only time will tell.</p>

<span id="h2">By Jason</span> <br> <br> I looked into replacing my worn bearings and found either plastic or rolled bronze available<br>
now due to keeping prices down these are made down to a price (nothing wrong with that makes them affordable)<br>
But if you want the best machined phospher bronze and hardened silver steel pins are the way to go <br>
Now nobody makes these as far as I know so I made a set up (if people are interested I'll post how to but it's involved)<br> <br>

<h1><img src="http://www.pro-jump.co.uk/PJF09/PJF-tutotials.jpg" alt="Pro-Jump Forum Tutorials" width="200" height="200" /><strong>Q's Trainer Sock</strong></h1>
<h2>By: Webmaster<a name="top" id="top"></a><br />
PJF Contributor: <strong>Bbmthbloke</strong> <br />
</h2>
<p> In early 2007, Q (Bbmthbloke) discovered an alternative way to get grip and reduce wear on your rubber sole. The idea was accidently stumbled upon by Q who originally thought he got a good deal on e-bay £6 for converse hi tops. Turned out they were kids size 11 and thus came about the Trainer Sock (He sure did find a use for them!!)</p>
<p>Click <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1261.0" title="Original Thread">here </a>for link to original discussion thread<br />
</p>
<h3><strong>Q's Trainer Sock</strong></h3>
<p>The idea for these came to Q (<strong>Bbmthbloke</strong>) more in hope than anticipation and resulted in perhaps one of the most easiest methods of protecting your rubber soles.<br />
<br />
The story goes
as follows:<br />
<br />
When Q started to make conventional tyre socks, cutting through a tyre, he broke the blade, which went spinning past his head, so he thought, sod that! and tried the trainers that he ordered in a kids size in error on his jumping Stilts feet, more in hope than expectation. He found the canvas stretched and really gripped the hoof well. Since then he has tried adult trainers, but found then horribly 'squidgy' and has recommended that a thin kiddy converse one is right trainer to use and it needs to be hi top or slip off. <br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2024.0;attach=1739;image" alt="Q's Trainer Sock" width="300" border="0"/><br />
Other members had tried this mod with adult trainers and some feel they work well for them so it is worth using a pair of old trainers and see how you get on with them.<br />

<h3>TIE UP TYRE SOCK: (In Pinhead69's Own words!)<br />
</h3>
<p> My tie up tyre socks.... these are the babies that triggered jason into making his hoofies after capital bocking... as i didnt like the look of tape wrapped around the hoof stem... ..sooo untidy... the beauty of these are...they can be taken off and put on quickly should you go from grass to concrete... the holes i used eyelets...but its not a necessity.....a strong nylon type lace is required......the first picture shows the pattern and shape... <br />

<strong>Instructions:</strong><br />
Cut the sock larger first in length..<br />
wrap it around tight to get the length you want<br />
once you have the size sorted.. you can mark out the flaps<br />
with a marker pen... <br />
use the shape i have used..as when they are folded around they<br />
will not twist... hence the dovetail shape of them on some....<br />
you can eyelet them or just punch a hole if you wish...<br />
ps...the 2 coloured tyres were only £4 from wilkinsons and will make <br />
quite a few socks... <br />

These hoofies are a direct replacement for the Pro-Jump Rubber Soles, in order to take advantage of this mod you must own a pair
of metal feet that the rubber sole can be removed on.<br />

<strong>MK3 HOOFIES TUTORIAL:</strong><br />
<br />
I think I have found the ideal material (Trail bike tyres) they last a long time (don't ask me how long I haven't worn a set out yet) so far mine have been on about 2 months and looks like they will last a fair bit longer<br />
<br />
Grip is as good as most Hoofs not quite as good as Hoofies Mk1/2 material in the wet but close one very important difference is that as they are made from motorcycle tyres they have to be worn in before getting maximum grip<br />
<br />
The best way to wear them in is to have a good jumping session (about an hour or 2 depending on how hard you bock) on dry concrete or something similar<br />
<br />
When they are first fitted they are like most tires in that they need wearing in before they reach max grip (about 5 min's on a bus lane or 15 on normal road/concrete so go slow at first especially in the wet<br />
<br />
The first pic is the kit you will get it consists of 2 Hoofies, 8 bolts and 16 nuts <br />
<br />
This will cost £10 + £1 p&p in the UK (other country's postage at cost) PM me for details and to order or check classified (when I figure out how to work it )<br />
<br />
Now the bad bit you will be buying a Kit containing bits of rubber tyre and some nuts and bolts to do with as you want.<br />
I don't guarantee them to do anything so if you hurt yourself don't blame me ( ie no guarantee )<br />
I am making these for you lot not for profit as the amount I stand to make on them won't even pay what I make an hour at work but I enjoy making them and hope to enjoy seeing you all using them<br />
<a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2706;image" target="_blank" id="link_2706" onclick="return expandThumb(2706);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2707;image" alt="MK3 Kit" id="thumb_2706" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> Screw the bolts into the holes shown in this pic (they will be a tight fit) push them all the way into the deep holes marked (Deep) </p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2708;image" id="link_2708" onclick="return expandThumb(2708);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2709;image" alt="" id="thumb_2708" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> These two pics show where the bolts go and how they should look </p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2710;image" id="link_2710" onclick="return expandThumb(2710);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2711;image" alt="" id="thumb_2710" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2712;image" id="link_2712" onclick="return expandThumb(2712);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2713;image" alt="" id="thumb_2712" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> Fit the Hoofie to the hoof and run a nut on each bolt as shown below and tighten until they just pull up (not too tight or they can pull through the rubber) If you can run 2 nuts on top and no thread shows as in the second picture that is tight enough <br />
<br />
The only trouble you might have is clearance to get the second nut on the back bolts as the main hoof/spring bolt gets in the way so you might want to put both nuts on the rear bolts before you tighten the first one (it makes more sence when you see it and thanks to Spud for noticing this one ) <img src="http://www.flyjumpers.com/Smileys/default/thumbs.gif" alt="" border="0" /></p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2714;image" id="link_2714" onclick="return expandThumb(2714);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2715;image" alt="" id="thumb_2714" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2716;image" id="link_2716" onclick="return expandThumb(2716);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2717;image" alt="" id="thumb_2716" border="0" /></a> Next add the second nut to each bolt and tighten it to lock the first nut in place<br />
You will need two 8mm spanners one to hold the bottom nut and the other to tighten the top nut as in this pic (you can use a set of needle nose pliers on the bottom nut if your careful)<br />
I also use loctite on the nuts (not really needed unless you are extreme) <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2718;image" id="link_2718" onclick="return expandThumb(2718);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2719;image" alt="" id="thumb_2718" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> This is how they should look when finished the top nut locks the lower one and stops them coming undone (check them often after fitting to make sure they don't come loose)<br />
<br />
You will notice a gap at the front as shown in the second pic don't worry about it this is normal and I didn't find it a trip hazard during testing </p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2720;image" id="link_2720" onclick="return expandThumb(2720);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2721;image" alt="" id="thumb_2720" border="0" /></a></p>
<p> <a href="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2722;image" id="link_2722" onclick="return expandThumb(2722);"><img src="http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3132.0;attach=2723;image" alt="" id="thumb_2722" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>IMPORTANT</strong><br />
I must say once more that it is very important to use them for the first time on a dry rough surface as one of my testers went straight into a gym with them brand new and got very little grip but clive and I have both used them in the gym after a couple of hours on concrete and they grip just as well as the MK2 Hoofies<br />
