Default Jacking Pucks

I read somewhere about making your own jacking pucks out of "hockey" pucks. If anyone has done this, what size eye bolt did you use.
Thanks

I'm going to buy the kit for $59.99, that's a drop in the bucket.

I started to use this method I found on the other forum, but ended up installing frame savers that cover the jacking slots. It seems pretty easy although I think I would use something a little stronger than plumbers putty........

Rick,
Hockey pucks work great. You can buy a set on-line for $30 or $40 dollars that have an eyebolt screwed into them. Spend an extra $10 and they will spraypaint them silver.

Just get a set(4) of hockey pucs. That is what I use and they fit perfectly.
