    At one point, my trucks were so loose that I had to toghten the kingpin with my fingers every so often.

    I ride a Vanguard with randals.

    Your bushings is too hard then, go softer.

    yea id recommend geting soft bushing before you decide to loosen up so much your washers rattle. soft bushings and a bit tighter trucks is a lot better than hard bushings and loose trucks

    How good are the stock bushings on Gullwing chargers?
    I have the stock, but im thinking of upgrading so i can at least try to pump.
    For the record, i have a drop through star 9 by sector 9. (I know secrot 9 isnt the best compants, but the board has held up nicely.)

    My "go to" board is:
    Stupid loose and highly wedged (front);
    Cranked down fairly tight and reasonably de-wedged (rear).

    My other boards (ramp etc.) are obviously set up totally different.

    My turning radius is 8'.

    When I upgrade my trucks it will probably be smaller.

    All my trucks are as tight as stock randals. Thats how they should be IMO. If you want a looser feeling, get softer bushings.

    just snug enough to keep the hanger in place. 70 mph and up, one turn tighter. below that it stays the same.
