Dime Bag Hardware Skateboard Truck Rebuild Kit Bushings Washers Pivot Cups for 2 Trucks

Great replacement bushings. My niece had a relatively cheap board from Target which would not turn due to its extremely stiff bushings. After replacing them with these rebuild bushings, the board turns great. Total transformation.My only complaint is that these bushings did nothing in terms of getting her to wear her helmet.Or listen to me in any way at all. Nice kid, but jeez do you really think you are always right? Come on! I've been on this earth 40 years longer than you! Do you think I might have a little more experience than you? At some things, at least? Anyways, good bushings.

This set was intended to rebuild trucks on a Penny board clone. However the pivot cups were too large for the aluminum trucks that are on the skateboard. They however fit a plastic trucks on another skateboard, which was a lucky break. The bushings and the washers are OK and seems to fit just fine.One thing I found is that a piece of clear vinyl tubing from a home improvement store makes great pivot cups. Just take your trucks to the store and find the closest tube that fits. Buy a foot of the tube and you will have a large supply of pivot cups! Cut a piece of the tube and use it instead of the pivot cup.So make sure that the set fits your trucks before ordering.

The metal washers are actually decent but the "bushings" themselves are made out of cheap plastic and very dangerous to ride on. I ordered 2 bushing packs from this seller in different durometers (hardness) and they were identical except for the color.To be fair, I tested out one of these bushing packs and after 3 minutes of riding they had deep scratches in them from the washers digging in. Not a characteristic of polyurethane (what bushings are supposed to be made.)You should be ashamed of yourself. I'm sure lots of parents buy these for their kids thinking it will improve their setup.1 Star - stability1 Star - safety1 Star - comfort1 Star - durability

Seller - 5*Dime Bag Bushings ...The bushings lasted 5 minutes before one of the top cones split. This isn't normal - these bushings are neither "store brand" nor cheap.The green matches Powell's lime green boards and green wheels pretty well ... if that's your end game.It isn't a seller issue (unless they are shipping old product) but a case of a good company's name on a bad product .This seller offers many alternatives - spend the same money on a set with better ratings.

I replaced the stocked bushings on a skateboard I bought here in Amazon and they work great, the board is smoother on the turns and seems a bit quieter, I’m not doing any tricks just riding around the neighborhood with my son on the sidewalks and asphalt and these bushings have padded the tiny impacts from the spaces on the concrete sidewalks and streets. I went with weight n softer option and I’m glad I did.
