BaroqueLeatherGal Report post Posted December 8, 2017 Hey guys, My main compression spring in my Ferdco Pro bull 2000 is starting to breakdown. I'm having a really hard time finding any parts for this machine since they have gone out of business. I have called Hoffman Brothers multiple times and left messages, with NO call back..Getting a bit frustrated to be honest. This is my shops main machine, having it down for any length of time is not an option. Any leads on parts for this machine, or even a supplier that will call me back would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uwe Report post Posted December 8, 2017 You'll have to find out which machine your Ferdco is based on. I'm guessing it's either a Juki or Seiko. Knowing the original make and model opens up your parts sourcing options a great deal. Post a few pictures of your machine so we can narrow down the make and model of the original machine.

Uwe Report post Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) Bob's number shows up twice in the signature at the bottom of his post. You'll know which machine it's based off if you give us a chance to tell you after we get a look at it. Edited December 9, 2017 by Uwe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wizcrafts Report post Posted December 11, 2017 This is a 441 clone. It will likely take the same foot pressure spring as a Cowboy CB4500. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe Report post Posted December 11, 2017 Nothing super special about the spring, really. Juki Part No. 210-50802, should be less than $10. This is what a new spring looks like: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
