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....

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.

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

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.

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.

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
