Re: your dh setup
Do the arms on GromBiz trucks pivot independently, or does the entire 'hangar' move together?

Re: your dh setup
Great.
The delrin makes it so smooth! Thanks for the NorCal thing too! haha
Anyways, The only way that i can
get the kingpin through the baseplate
and the hangar is by bashing it through
with a hammer. After it is through, I cant
take the hangar off without removing the whole
truck from the deck and bashing the kingpin out the
opposite way it came in.
Can someone help me or know why this is and how I can fix it?
Thanks

It's the way you gotta do it with Jimz hangers as well, (with most boards/BPs) unless you have a special ball-end pivot. Kind of a pain, but the smooth turning is worth it. 
Is that how precision plates + precision hangars usually are?
Darn.
I usually ride my DH setup everywhere and use it for everything, switching out the bushings all the time.
The talon pivots are in no way removable either, so i don't think i could get any ball pivots either.

I see your problem.
I'm not sure about all precisions.....I just know with a hard cup, bushing changes can be a pain. You could drill a hole through your deck so you could pop the kingpin through.... It's gonna be different for different baseplates, though. As long as you stick with the Jimz...someone else may have better advice, I don't know. That's all I got.
The only other thing I could see would be to put a spherical in the pivot, if you're into doing that.

I didn't have any problem with that with those exact baseplates and another pair of talon hangers. It may be that you have to get the bottom bushing height exact, since there's a spherical.
