  1. NO!

    Those trucks were sold at BIG 5 for a reason... they suck!

    Technically, the trucks and the bearing quality are different. But they WILL affect the performance. Your board will roll, but trust me, those trucks will not last. Chances are they'll crack very soon, but not before they loosen up extremely. Even putting in some good bushing won't help all that much.

    Don't do it. You want some good trucks that work well, but not too expensive? Get some Tensors.


  2. ARE YOU NUTS!!! if your gonna skate then you better use the good stuff not the cheap stuff. go to a skate shop and buy your parts there as well as you deck. the bearings you have will work fine but your trucks and wheels... get rid of them!  if you want inexpensive stuff buy wheels from the website down there. their wheels are only $20 and have the best quality i've ever used in wheels. for trucks get independent or desructos. they're around only $40 in pairs.

    good luck
