That being said i ask you to remove yourself from this site for the time being, think about how much you really know about skating, all the while offline. In other words go #### yourself, merry christmas bitch.

i think you answered your own question duder. look at the truck, what will happen if you flip it around and the axle is in the same location as before? nothing. if there is no change in the geometry of the truck when you flip it, then it's safe to say that it will perform the same as before.
important things to look for in "flipable" hangers - caster and rake
from my experience the only thing flipping a hanger does is take a once lively truck and gives it a fat dead spot and lowers the ride height slightly. if you like sacrificing fun for a few millimeters in height, then i guess flipping the hanger is right for you

Stock bushings for now. I'll get a longer KP and some more lively bushings in there eventually. I just decided to drill the indys old school and take them off my corchia for some fun.
Very twitchy. Very fun.

Sabres have a bunch of rake yo. It works the same as radnals, but the bushings seats are quite diferent so you get a different effect. I haven't tried it though, don't generally like flipped trucks.

Re: your dh setup
I'm reaallllyy not used to Indys. I have them loose enough to bite if I push with my hands and they still dont seem turny enough at lower speeds.
