So, I wouldn't be overly bothered about this, being that I'm getting brr trucks for christmas, just, now I can't FB til christmas.
Why?
My only trucks I had (TD wides) snapped. Trying to fix the axles, the kingpin snapped.

My question to everyone is, for all of you not with YTtrucks or BRRs, what do you do with axles falling out ALL the time? Is it just older TD trucks (like I had) that the axles just die and fall out all the time? If the new ones do it too, what do you do about it? Buy new trucks? Or put up with glueing them once a day or however often it happens? (I was doing it once a day, they were that bad..)

And, amusing side note, the axle fell out earlier, I didn't notice where the wheel went and spent 20 minutes looking for it, to find it went in my laundry basket, haha..

So, yea, what do you all do? Any tips on how to stop them dying so much?

Never really tried any tuning aside changing the bushings.. so, nope.

its happened to all TD trucks I've ever had, I superglue them and they fall out again realllly quickly .___.

I wish they sold TD old schools in toysrus, then I could go get one. I might have to just pick up a td and ride reg trucks for 11 days.

Just use normal td trucks, its not even bad it just looks odd, ive only ever had normal sized trucks and its fine seriously, and if they break, buy new ones they're only 4 quid.

I'm going to town in a bit (as I just finished work not long ago) to pick up up a td, and put the wide hangar on the new baseplate, then I'll just hammer the axle back in.
And I'll get a chocolate td so I can have tiny chocolate stickers, haha happy

That said, cant wait til christmas, haha.

tongue, See if you can find the factory painted coloured ones, they're usually somewhere in the pile.
