Default Paris Trucks

Does anyone know if the Paris 180's hangers can be flipped to sit lower?

i wouldnt recommend it. The randals are castered so the bushing seat sits flat when flipped wither way. The paris hangar is not castered it's just an offset bushing seat. If you flip them you are running the bushing seat at an angle against your bushings which is bad. Looks like thos bus sideways: |\ It will wear unevenly. If you shim up the bushing to make it flat contact the hangar is essentially unflipped.

PS I do wanna try flipping it with double barrels on the bottom since you get more room. I just haven't bothered yet.
