Hoofies Mk2 How To
« on: April 30, 2008, 09:06:20 PM »
I have finally done the how to for the new MK 2 Hoofies (bolt-on) so here it is

First here is the kit that you will get ( note the hole names ) once the hoof wears you can turn it round and use the rear as the front and double its use

Oh and if anyone wants to do this with their own rubber "Go For It" it should work so long as you get the rubber thickness right

You will now have 1 rubber hoof, 4 bolts and 4 lockwashers as below I have seperated the lockwashers from the bolts as these will be reused later

Now take 4 of the studs from the kit and screw them into the 4 holes in the hoof
Before you screw them in have a look at how deep the hole in the hoof is as you want them to go to the bottom but not distort the hoof

Take 4 nuts from the kit and put one on each stud run them down to the bottom and tighten with an 8mm spanner not to tight just enough to lock the studs in place

The hoofies rubbers have 4 hole at each end put the 2 studs at the front of the hoof through the end most holes as in the picture below
Using these holes will allow you to rotate the rubber later and get more wear out of it

As you tighten the the nuts up ensure that the lower nuts go into the holes in the Hoofies rubber tighten until the top nuts push the rubber firmly down onto the lower nuts (you will know when as the nuts go tight)

Now pull the Hoofies rubber round the hoof and place the inner most set of holes over the rear studs (takes some effort)

Now pull the hoof back and the rear studs will slide into the back holes (takes a bit of wriggling) they won't be straight at this time don't worry they straighten as you tighten them

Put a lockwasher and nut on each of the back studs and evenly tighten all 4 nuts on the studs until they flatten the lockwashers ( not to tight or you can strip the threads) thats the first one done now just repeat for the other hoof

Thanks Naz

I've been testing them for about a month and they don't seem toslip to the side at all so I think I've finally cracked it

Only bit is they only fit the bolt-ons
