Hey,
I have a constant problem with my flashbacks. The bearins frequently unsug , or move just a hair in the bearing hub, causing the bearing spacers to make a rattleing noise. What can i do about this. I have cleaned them as good as i could. One had urothane on the inside. Could the bearing spacers be bad? I have pleasure tools bearings. abec 7.
I don't think they are because i got my board in a complete setup. And everything should be right. I got a bozi bomber with flashbacks and pleasure tools abec 7's.
With bearing spacers, you should snug up the nut fairly tight (if you don't already have it that way). I wouldn't think the Flashbacks would be too wide inside for the spacer. A lot of guys learn from skateshop guys to leave the nuts a little loose, but with spacers it's not necessary.
Whenever a wheel starts making that noise (the bearing spacer) i have to take off the wheel and press the bearings down into the seat. It usually makes a click like it set in there better. I press hard all around and make sure the bearing is seated properly. After i do this it seems like its impossible for the bearing to move a hair, but it does. Thus causing the noise to happen.
