I have the S5 for my Phoenix and when I installed them, I needed to readjust my brace height of my string, but in doing so, it changed my FPS (reduced it). I thought if I could move them a bit, I could put my string where it can achieve maximum FPS. I like to get the most performance possible!
Being aware my Xbow is probably safe with out them, I like the added security they offere and the dampening so, I made them tunable.
I drilled a hole down the center of the S5.....
tapped the hole with a 1/4" 20
Cut the ball off and about 3/8" from the middle, then inserted a 1" set screw to the base and a 1/4" set screw in the ball section to lock against the stem. This will allow me to adjust the stops around my optimum brace height and lock them in place.
As you can see they are at different heights to show the adjustability.
I wont be able to test until the end of the week, because of my work schedule though. Oh one is silver because I lost the original in the snow and my buddy fabbed one up until I get the replacement one, this is why I'm behind with the project. Field testing should have started this weekend.
