CNC'd and Performance DH Trucks

[SteveC]

Force would fit too.
I think holeys, crails and bears can fit if you make your own pivot cups.
If I remember correctly I've seen holey hangers on malakai's speedbone.
and I think mark grimace did some other variations too. Might help you in your searching...

since just about everyone has copied or near copied randal's k'pin to pivot measurement, a lot of trucks fit....

[BoMbHiLlS92]

It would be really helpful if someone could list an approximation on how much all these cost just as a resource and maybe even links to what site carries them. I would do it, but I'm the one that doesn't know

That is a sick sig!

[circle]

i am really looking in to radikal talons, how be they dropped thru'ed, for those who have skated them

[Spaz]

after some research i have found out the most compatible hangers for pogo base plates to update this

Pogo Base Plates
---Angle: 36°/42°/48°
---Bolt Pattern: Old School/New School
---Base Plate Material: Alloy
---Pivot Cup: Urethane
---Color ways: Pogo
---Other: Requires Routing, 31mm Lower Due to Design, Pivot Cups Must Be Pressed in by Vice
--- compatible hangers: Randals, chargers, paris, holeys, forces, Jimz, radikals and maguns will fit.
crails need work to do so, due to piviot cup.
bears and kahas will not work.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

as for other hangers. if you know if they work or not please feel free to add in on it.
note i do not own a set, but getting info on what works. for the behalf of others.

i was wondering what was the best truck people have ridden for drop through. and what they think are good

i am on grizzlies, and love them, but i was wondering of a precision truck that was awesome.

[TheRosen]

use the search function and read reviews. all the cnc trucks work really well. propped through or otherwise. Jimz probably work the best dropped thru since they're so tall topmounted, but i havent ridden on kookys, sponges, fux, or maguns

[Grahamcrackers]

Maguns jimz and talons are your best bet for dropthroughed boards

Not 'must'. I pressed mine in by hand. maybe it was luck, or maybe im just realy strong.

how do kookys compare to radikals in your opinion, or would you recommend another truck

i know maguns are really expensive, and i have heard good things about kahalanis, what do you think about those.

[TheRosen]

theres a lot to learn using the search function on opinions. not too much yet for kookys, but i love mine. i mean, really love them. havent ridden radikals though. kahalanis are really good trucks too (very similar) but i think that kookys are a bit better dropped through, and you have more bushing choices in kookys. + kooky plates are like having another set of pogos. everything fits in them.

Edit: better dropped thru then kahas, i think they both shine topmounted.

[cjbliss]

wow i have a lot of questions right now, first i need to know the optimal set up on my randal II trucks, I was thinking either jimz's or khiros. Next how should i set the truck up with the bushing? (washers? what kind of washers? flipped hangers?) lastly, what are those kooky trucks? i searched them and got nothing.

Bushings are personal preference, but really you cant go wrong with JimZ or Karrot bushings in a simmilar duro and shape.

just buy some, ride it allot, and change it and try it out yourself till you find something your comftorable on

Maguns are pretty much out of the question becuase of the$. Complete Talons come out to be around 300 shipped if you buy extra axles. I would highly recommend Talons, I only have the hanger but the baseplates are almost finished. /they turn so well, it's out of this world. I hardly have to lean in my tuck compared on my old trucks I would be grabbing rail. Since Kookys dont have sphericals they will have more "play or slop" in them like kahas. That play can be a good thing, it all depends on you style of riding. Sphericals make for very percise turns and you have to be a fairly competemt rider to handle sphericals at speed to really take advantage of them. Everything you do with you ankles is going to transfer directly to your board unlike trucks without sphericals you have a little bit of wiggle room. Basically if you still get the slightest hints of wobble talons we be like"oh, he wants pump going 45 mph and go right along with it". If you have stable ankles the trucks are golden. I believe Kookys are a lower truck so I wouldn't recommend them for a dropthrough cuase you will lose a lot of turn. Talons are pretty much Jimz trucks but with WAY more options too them: you can choose axle lenghts from around 170-210mm, sphericals in hangers and baseplates ofr just one or the other, 35 45 55 degree baseplates

Great description of of the difference between precision and non-precision. Very helpful.

Also I am just curious. Would Smokies be compatible with Pogos? It wasn't on the does or does not of that post about Pogos so I thought I'd ask. I loves me a low board.

[Paul from cambridge]

I absoloutley love kahalani trucks on my old carbon hellcat for freeride and standing drifts at speed.
For racing methinks top mount (avenger)
I'm getting maguns for the avenger (not rich but I am serious about the sport)

Talons don't do it for me, seems like a a glorified randal with way too many spherical pivots.
spherical suck.

search kaha trucks on google to spot a review (tteehee)

Very good review by Panda:

Sphericals dont suck you just suck at riding them.
