Skateboard help.?

Question

Ive just recently noticed that two of me wheels not really touch the ground.. it dosent make a difference when im riding but when my board is sitting there u can see a gap between the wheels and the ground. any help would be great!

Answer 1

Yeah, I had the same problem...

It's gotten better though...the bushings have broken in for me.

Answer 2

loosen the umm *bolts* thats like in the middle of the truc a bit *on them both* and then  flip the board ovr. when  you see the griptape, use ur hands and push/lean HARD on the side that the wheels arent touching the ground. ..

good luck!!!!

Answer 3

if it is a new board that is normal, because the bushings have to wear in (especially if they are harder ones). But it still does not matter and that happens a lot.

Answer 4

You probably have hard bushings like DoDo's.  This is just because they grip onto where the truck was last angled.  It's sort of like memory, if you lean on the other side of your board like you're turning, the gap will be on the other side, this is just because of hard bushings, they may wear in over time, but if you want the gap to be gone now, you can loosen the kingpin  which is ()--O--()  the O if that is the truck<<<.    The nut that is bigger than the ones on the side.  This will put less pressure on the bushings so they will not grip and your trucks will be looser.  

If you like how your trucks are now, just leave it, you just have hard bushings, and when you stand on it, the reason you don't feel it, is because there is no longer a gap, because your feet are leveling it out, this is doing no harm to your board, and it is fine to keep it that way.

Good luck, hope i helped =)
