Hi

Could some please tell me the screw size for a inverted kingpin and also the truck mounting screw sizes?

Thanks

I know the sizes, but i'm not telling you. People go out of their way to figure out what sizes things are, and invest money into the perfect size.

Thanks for your help Thom.

I hope one day you need something and all the answers you get are as constructive as yours above!

That's how you promote fingerboarding to people like my son and I who have only been doing it for a couple of weeks.

And I'm sure Thom appreciates all of the respect you gave him. As he said,

. Why should you be able to ask and get the answer?

I'm sorry for appearing a jackass, but asking what sizes and stuff is pretty much lazy, it's like asking Coca-Cola how much of each ingredient is needed in a batch.

Sorry for appearing lazy.

I have came from racing remote control cars and a question like this would be answered without an issue.

Please lock this thread.

No it wouldn't. You obviously dont know anything about fingerboarding, do you know how much time it takes to fiind out these and its soo valueable to other companies. Just a couple of tips, if your trying to buy them just for one or two fingerboards just go to www.fingerboardstore.de or if your buying it to start a company then no one will buy of you. Dont take that as an offence but people will just go to fingerboardstore because there known for tuning.

i usually bring a pair of tech deck trucks without the original kingpins and test it out in a hardware store.

No offence taken.

As to starting a company, I wouldn't waste my time. As stated above my son and I have only been doing this for a couple of weeks. All our spare time is taken up trying to learn how to do the basic of basic tricks.

And again this question wasn't meant to affend or put anyone nose out of place.

Blosom had given me a few links for them earlier in the week, but I just wanted to see if I could buy them in the uk as the postage is twice/three times as much as the product from Europe/USA.

and i thought this was a friendly place........

but yeah, no bodies going to tell you anything worthwhile to any 'companies' freely open air in the forum for everyone to see........this sort of info is 'useful' to 'kiddies' and they buy up 500 pins and sell them and 'start' a company......

your best bet is to ask someone who's opinion you trust, by pm.

hehe little entrepreneurial kiddies are funny

And racing guy, if you're just starting out, are kingpins really that important? Not trying to be offensive at all, but the standard tech deck ones work pretty good.

You guys are dumb. If someone wanted to buy 500 screws and start a company with the info why not. When like you guys have said they can go to the hardware store and figure it out themselves. This is a place for answers so you don't have to go to the hardware store and try 100x sizes. If more companies had the kingpin screws available then People wouldn't have to ask and find out the sizes. Your arguments are narrow and false.

So what size screw and thread count is best for inverted kingpins? If your scared let me know too LOL

Don't post in old threads please. This thread is pretty old so I think everyone is over it by now.
