The trucks are decent except for, every now and then, out of the blue, the screws holding the trucks to the deck pop out. It's not all at once, and they have no order, but I've lost three already. Not quite sure what the problem is, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Good truck, I would fully reccommend them. You hear people saying theyre not as stable as Randals, but I don't think so, at all. They feel super good, really solid, not cheap, and theyre well constructed.
