    depends on what type of board they are going on. but if youve just got 52 plates on both filip both hangers regardless. just play around figure out what you like.
    Blue stickers are only given to the select few people to suck adam coltons balls, and do it skillfully enough to give him blue balls. Thus resulting in the giving of the rare Blue Loaded Sticker.

    My friend tried flipping his trucks and when he flipped the back and not the front the board did't turn (we didnt try front flipped back regular) so if I were u I wouldn't even think about those just try reg and both flipped.

    more stability (ie like maguns) flip both.

    for more carve/easier turn, dont flip 'em.

    I have an 09 hellcat with grizzly 852 and venom barrels (93 back, 90 front). I flipped the hangers and its awesome. The board gets really close to the ground. However, flipping the hanger did cause the bushing cups to dig into it, and venom barrels are pretty thick, not really a problem just though I'd let you know. I don't get why you ask though, its not like it costs anything to try (provided you have tools)

    take your hanger off, turn them over, put them back on. it changes the way your bushings compress.

    edit: and gab, just run flat washers.

    its the part that the wheel go on. take the nut off the kingpin (where the bushings are) and you can slide off the hanger and turn it over.
