Replacing skate rubbers/bushings

[MADB]

So I have just replaced the rubber washers and pivot caps on the my scrub skate trucks. Got a set of yellow Doh Dohs, but how tight can I screw them down?

 

Just checking how to put them on the board. From the base plate large metal washer, the larger bush then axel smaller bush, smaller washer then the fixing nut.

 

Bit dumb I know but best to check.

 

Cheers B.

yher thats right and just keep tighting them till they dont wobble, the tighter they are the less speed wobble the loser they are the better turning

Nice one, Thanks.

My trucks are that rusted that I can not even adjust them - lol.

dont tighten them too much or they just break (or worse break the truck/kingpin). if you need stiffer turning get stiffer rubbers.
