Default Loaded Dervish Trucks?

Recently got a dervish deck for cheap. I am lookin for good carving trucks for a reasonable price. I kinda hav an idea: paris 180... I currently hav randal r2 150s from my old board.

paris 180 or randals 180 not the chargers of what i heard(but if you found some old chargers at buy&sell or somewhere else then buy them) if you haven't decided on bushings yet i would recomend some lime reflex JimZ/Stims bushings from Karrot here at the fish

Its kind of preference. Paris' and Randal's are pretty much the same. I personally like the R2's better because the kingpin is removable without a hammer. But people love Paris' too. I think Mile high mark said all the dervishes he sold were mostly equipped with Paris' 180's. Another good truck is the Gullwing Chargers 10". A lot of people ahve been saying the newer ones aren't as great, but I haven't tried the new ones yet. The "older" ones were amazing. The stock bushing was unparalleled and the truck was a pumping machine. But I still use my R2's a bit more.

If you decide to go with a new set of Chargers, just swap the bottom washers with the tops; the bushings won't rip on you. I did that and they feel just fine to me

The Paris are just great, the best trucks for the dervish, in my opinion.
