Seems this is a "gateway thread", where new posters dabble, make their first posts, leading to other darker, more dangerous threads.

very true.

well, this is my current set up:


7.75 Naysayer "NaysLayer" board, new 55mm Prize Fighter wheels, krux downlows, way past their prime bones swiss bearings. that was taken a few days ago, so it doesn't look much like that anymore, however.

[susej]

I too am on a NaysLayer.  8.0

I'm gonna set up tomorrow the anti-hero board with the flip flop graphic 8,38 the rest will be the same, spitfire classics indys....

Picked up some 169's the other day. Good looks.

so exactly one month and 2 boards later (after the nayslayer, i rocked an itty bitty kitty committee), this is the same set up with one of the naysayer aliens graphics.

This is bothering me as of late... How do I get my trucks to stop squeaking? Making them tighter is not an option.

[elastic back]

are they new? sometimes you just have to break them in...otherwise get softer bushings.

Try putting a tiny, tiny bit of oil in the pivot cup.  My old indys were squeaking like crazy so I put some motor oil on my finger and lubed it up, then wiped away the excess oil with a rag - no more squeaks.

[skatekorpse]

I'll try that. And no, they aren't new. That's thing thing I've never understood- I've had some sets for years and they still squeak.

[Mister Afternoon]

I understand this is the un-official new guy thread, so I'll post here first.

Given 8.5" team deck
Indy 149's
Bones Swiss bearings
Autobahn clear Core 53's

who gives a shit about hardware and grip...
