    Stock orange indy bushings and the aftermarket orange ones are different durometers, I know that much.

    They seem like very different materials, too. The stock/oem ones are almost "plastic-y" in appearance and feel.

    new combo...

    Khiro black bottums and blue stim stops on Randal R2 on my LBL custom.

    great for nose riding.

    Yup. The 88a Moogs are pretty damn hard compared to the med/yel HardCores. The Moogs even feel harder than the 90a DLX Supercush bushings.

    Mark, any chance you can measure the duro (or if anyone already knows post it) for the stock bushings in the 6tracks (yellow/red swirl) and the black bushings coming in the black Crails?

    thanks

    The orange Superballs are 94a, and they're used in the Sixtracks, as well as the 184 and 219 Darts.

    The black Moog bushings are rock hard, but I haven't tested them. There may not actually be enough material for the durometer to read. I'll try it and see what happens, though.

    This accurate info I presume then:

    Randal Yellows are the same duro as Doh Doh Yellows? Or is that just technical number jibberish?

    Default bounce

    A couple of things I'd like to mention:

    1. I find it hard to believe that yellow DohDohs are harder than black Bones.

    2. This very valuable list would be even better if it had a category for or bounciness and/or turniness (assuming that's a word). For example, yellow DohDohs and blue Stimulators are both listed as 92a, but are clearly very different in terms of truck action. The Stims are relatively hard but still bouncy and turny. The DohDohs are calmer and less turny and seem to feel harder.

    Comments?

    They measure approx 85a. It's hard to get an exact reading, however, as the durometer's "pin" is close to the bushing's edge(s). Holey bushings test out about the same (85-87a).

    The JimZ Bushing (they are on the list) are 80a, you can expect new harder duros from Jim this summer.

    I am under the impression that the softer green stims are the same as the yellow stims and they just messed up the color when they made them.

    That's my understanding, too.
