    Default Truck Maintainance

    So I recently bought an Original Torpedo 40 with S8 trucks and im pretty new to the whole longboarding scene. I was wondering if anyone could pass on any tips for keeping my trucks (as well as my entire board) in tip top shape. i.e: cleaning, greasing, etc.

    any/all info is appreciated! thanks!

    I am not familiar with those trucks. However, do not use WD40 on any part of your board or trucks or wheels or anything, ever!
    Bushings and wheels and stuff like that doesn't like it, it's nasty.
