Guys.... I was riding my new brr trucks / medium loose when the washer and the bushing of the truck just came apart... I putted it back ... but what should I do/get to prevent this problem happening ? do I need another bushings that I can make them loose a little bit more ?

Basically the truck came apart.... like.. I had to put the washer and the bushing back again .... I don't even ride loose.... I was riding medium loose ..(I think so) .. so what ? the bushings on the brr trucks can only be used tight ?

if you have any bushings like riptape bushings I'd swap over to them until you can afford tkys or something- will work better as the white ones are a medium hard bushing.

You can ride No Logo however you want. They're a medium bushing, but if you put them on upside down they ride loose

Are YTrucks designed for BRR ed wheels, or will I need to use washers?

BRR ed wheels are for blackriver trucks, not for ytrucks.

Get some wood dye. Put the veneer pieces in there. Let them soak there for a few days.

technically you'd have to use washers with BRT eds. since the axle space on Y's are a bit longer than on BRT's. But they work great without washers too.

right, you're all going to think I'm a noob because of this question. What makes professional trucks perform better? I mean, how does it affect the performance of the board?
I've never paid for professional trucks because I know I can get them alot cheaper.

well in ytrucks fe the kingpin is round so that helps a lot in grinds, the turning system is much smoother they look better they come with lock nuts and great pivot cups they fit all wheels without washers being needed they feel a lot better to ride imo they're portuguese
.. they ain't that expensive .... oh what about no logo ? can I use them loose ? or I should just get tkys ?
