Open Source Precision Trucks - Looking for design feedback

164mm-154mm adjustable axle width, 45/25 bases w/ 5mm/2.5mm rake… I don’t think they will work for you Bro the waterproof moonshine pro tucker is no good too :wink:

I’ll save you the pain

Not optimal but you know never enough shiny trucks :slight_smile: and agreed about the moonshine. Got a rum runner to test out, so little feedback, constantly moving your feet to have any kind of response and footing.,

mounting space makes flex, or lack of support. With no extra weight you could move some material where it could do some good. The pivot will be rock solid, the hangar less so… I think

could measure out mine when I get my katanas back.(2-3 weeks) or mayby @Cobber could help out.

That would be sweet!

so nice leathers, spicy trucks… How far do I need to travel to raid your home haha :slight_smile:

What axle/axle stubs are you planing to use?

same ones as surfrodz

I am thinking of the tucker as a blank kanvas like my limelite

Well, there are a couple of options :slightly_smiling_face:

you could continue the arc towards the first shoulder next to the pivot if you wanted, it kind of looks like it heading there anyway or you can keep the shoulders as your steeze…

As for the bushing seat, I’d shout out to @Alphamail and ask him for his thoughts?

if you look at the following images you will see there is some relief around the bushing seat for deformation of the bushing and so bushing washers and cups don’t hit the hanger.

the problem is solved in both in two different ways, one just removes the material (k5) and the katanas remove material at a angle to the sides of the bushing seat where lateral load is applied to the bushing as the hanger pivots towards the kingpin.

How thick is the hanger now LittleBro, and how deep are the bushing seats road and boardside? Do you have any rake?

How will the machining of the pivoting nose proceed? I tried making this by hand with my knee-mill but the cutter for it don’t exist. I’ve only been successful in grinding it off for a tight fit with the urethane pivot cup.

flip it so the pivot nose is facing upward.

That’s what I do. But I’m thinking in terms of using a CNC since time is money on that.
