Super bolt Feed Neck ???

Iron Bird · 04-06-2007, 02:28 PM

the threads for the feed neck are removeable and i just bought this cocker and need new threads where can i buy one??? This is the part i mean

uuummmm....wow did you rip that out by yourself? That piece should have been pressfit into the body. Maybe contact WGP to get one but your better off going to FBM

I don't think anyone makes them for the Psychoballistics 'Cockers. I had that same problem when I tried to find a feednack for my Lightning. Your best bet is to try to find a high-rise feedneck with the same diameter as the PB one, and use a Dremel to "carve" it to fit.

The Psychoballistics Superbolt isn't pressed in like the lightning, it is threaded . I'm not sure if it is cocker threaded or not though.

ok by pressed in...i mean the threaded part that the feedneck screws onto which I'm assuming is what that mangled thing is. If so, then your best be to have a professional fix would be to send it to FBM and have them put a hooker feedneck in its place or buy the feedneck and do it yourself if youve got the tools

Iron Bird · 04-06-2007, 04:46 PM

yea tthe threaded part is removeable on the superbolt its held in by a set screw

The old threads can usually be fixed with a very small triangle file and a light touch unless major areas of it are messed up.

Older Timmy and SHO (or maybe it's STO?) cocker feednecks screw onto the base threads.

Like the other guy said, it's not press fitted into the body. It's held in by set set screws.

That's one feature I love about the superbolts. I also love the set screws in the front block to keep the pneus from moving around.

I'd hate that personally...set screws are good for some things but not holding a feedneck in place. It seems like they cut corners by doing it that way

JoshGrrrr · 04-07-2007, 01:48 AM

I've owned at least 6 of these cockers now. I've never had a problem with a feedneck moving once I locked it down. You say you WOULD hate that, but it sounds like you've never owned one. I've never heard a complaint about the feednecks.

I'd call press fitting cutting corners more than I'd call using a set screw cutting corners. Press fits require less machining, and are harder on the customer if there is ever a problem with the stock feedneck. Press fitting is a shortcut often used in machining. With the set screw you can lock it down and never mess with it, but if you ever do need to take the feedneck out you can do so without risking damaging the feedneck or the body.

My Superbolt doesn't have a set screw for the feedneck. It just screws out

No I dont own one, never plan to cause I'm not a fan of the milling style. The reason I dont like the idea of set screws is because when it comes to that part of the feedneck, I want it to be as secure and permanent as possible.

You're talking about the upper portion with the lightning bolts on it. The lower portion that goes into the body is also removable with the setscrew. Look for a hole for a small setscrew on the front of the main body right at the base of the feedneck. If you loosen that screw you cal lift out the lower portion that looks like the piece in the picture in the first post.

The way the set screw is in there, it's not going anywhere.

Like I said before, I've owned at least 6 Superbolts. I've never had a feedtube move on me when I didn't want it to. Actually, I've had feednecks stuck on the feedtube that I had to get off with a strap wrench, the feedtube still didn't move.

It's definately secure. Why you'd want it permanent I don't know.
