I got a set of these off a friend second hand and set them up, and to be honest, I was extremely disappointed! The bushings weren't the same size, so the truck was completely wonky, so after using them for a while I didn't have the best first impressions of these. However, at Crossed Fingers I tried out many sets of them and they were insane! Thankfully after winning a set at Crossed Fingers, I have set them up again and can say that they're absolutely amazing! I think I may have over tightened my first set when mounting them, which deformed the shape. With a fresh set, I haven't made the same mistake, and have set them to my preference without ruining the bushings. Nice work Gilly!

yeh acutualy they have cracked i took a closer look at them

well its the top one and whenever i tighten it the nut just sinks into the hole, and after an hour it will just fall off, they arent split or anything, so i dont realy know whats happening with them

To me this just sounds like you don't have a washer on the top?

I've had a similar problem with my first set but I have another set now thanks to Gilly without this problem. I'll be trying them out later.

yer im pretty sure some must of went out with off cuts... All should have been replaced now

Cant wait for mine

As you can see, my bushings have warped again after only 3 days of use:(
Pretty annoyed at them

I it just me or do those trucks look tight? Try them without the washers maybe?

They're not even tight man, it's just that they're on longboard base plates which have longer than normal kingpins.

Ah, fair enough. I dunno in that case.

Tbh you might wanna put the td longboard hangars back on the base plate as they support bigger bushings

The axels are fucked on them, so I can't

Get some super glue or purchase fbs axels to fix that. China wides are only good for oring like bushings

I bought some BRT's yesterday, so it doesn't really matter about them hangers, I can live with these wides at the moment.

And the type of hangar makes no difference to the performance of the bushing anyway, it's only dependent on the length of the kingpin and how tight the trucks are set. The No Logos were fine on the hangers for the first 3 days until they started warping, which is exactly what happened with my last pair (which were on 32mm Tech Deck trucks)

Yea but all i was saying was the bushing gets a little more room with td longboards ,brts, or wood fvckers

What you mean? it gets more room on the kingpin or around the hanger?

yeah

Very odd indeed... Iv had no problems with warping and im still on my first set that I moulded.. Tho there on Brts. I'm going to have to look into this Cheers for bringing it to my attention. Are you using washers with them? when the top washer is on it should technically eliminate all problems like this " Technically"

One suggestion to try. Tighten the screw with washer on really tight then loosen it all the way this may put them back to the right shape.. let me no if this helps I may have to look into making the rubber stiffer again...

Get rid of those baseplates and use normal techdeck ones i think they should work.

Just did this man, it made an improvement, still a tad off though

I did this aswell, it made no difference really, the kingpins in my old ones weren't that much longer man
