Array Sleeved Washer System,How Too's

How too's on Array sleeved washers.  How to make things work right when it comes to setting up your trucks with  high end after market bushing and Array sleeved washers and other products.

What sleeved washers should I used with what set up? What setup works for down hill and free ride?

First thing first, you need to look at what hardness bushing you can use with the setup you want. All this vary's on your weight and skill level.  Check the durometer or color chart that almost every manufacture has one on there after market high end bushings. (Note with the Sleeved washers, if you like lighter softer bushings you should go up a hardness if you heaver rider you will go down a hardness.)

Durometer scale goes, 78A,80A,83A,85A,86A,87A,88A,90A,91A,93A,94A,98A,or a color chart.

Style bushing are
Cone,Tall cone, Tall fat cone,Barrel,Tall barrel,Short barrel,Stemuler,Eliminator, Kag's,Chubby, Hour glass,

 Of course there are more style but this will cover most of the after market bushing out there.
(Taking suggestions from places like Longboard skateboard shop or chat room can help or any expert you can get a better idea of what you like.)  But for the most part it's a personal thing on what work and how fair you can push the envelope, when it comes to after market bushing with sleeved washers.

(A thing to stick with is that the size's has't to fit the original size of the bushing to washer height's with all stock trucks to make the truck work right and turn the way you want.)

Sometime's this will take sometime to figure out and make it work the best for the style of skating you are going with.  Downhill skateboarding and free ride, sleeved barrel washer road side in the front and back, cupped washer board side both front and back truck. Bushing you can used are barrel all around or Eliminators for more downhill board side front and back. The bushing hardness will very on your style of skating  and your riding style and your weight and skill's

(What I go by is hard 90A bushing board side and medium 88A road side rear truck, front truck medium 86A board side medium soft 83A road side, Of course this is different with every rider's skill level and style of riding.

 Now with so many stock taller bushing on trucks you can change up more way's you want to use you sleeved washers.  Modifying trucks or changing to a longer king pins and (stacking washer like the sleeved barrel with the cupped washer for DH with a Eliminator bushing is fine, (harder duro is more stable softer duro quicker rebound.) You can do this on the road side or board side, also with barrel bushings or bubble barrel bushing. If you are looking to change the height of a set up you can also use a  Array flat washer as a (Step up washer on a barrel sleeved washer or a cupped washer or a cone sleeved washer.) You can stack the cone sleeved washer with a cupped washer as well.

 Cone sleeved washer are more for a carver style or turner front truck of a quicker snappier turn.
This can be more used in cursing and ,Push pump, Slalom, LDP race style trucks and even more.

Star washer works with all the style washers give added pressure between the lock nut and the top sleeved washer or Flat or Cupped or Cone or Stepped. The added pressure works in two ways. First, lock nuts are a one use system and ware out over time. Two, the extra pressure keep's everything working much better this way. To those that have said that the barrel washer can't keep a strait line in a slide has not tried this with the stair washer in place.

Yes, My Name Is (Thane)

For sometime people have been asking if my name is a nickname or if I was born with it?
I posted a tread on this on the fish for the same reason, so that people know that this is my real name and you can call me by it.  My Mom came up with the name when she was in a antique store and heard a mom call for her sun named (Thane).  My Mom like the name so much that she named me (Thane).  Having a different name and being a different kid growing up it has made who I am.

Thanks

0'G Truck Development.

Here it is, This is the finale design of the 0'G truck.
After hearing how people feel on (you tube),and finding out how much hate there is for this truck I though that I would tell you how I feel about that, there is nothing you can do to stop change!!
You people that are giving me a hard time on Youtube think I care about how you feel well there is nothing that make me more happier to tell you that your time will pass and you will have to live with the gilt  of  what you have done was rude and deceitful. I on the other hand will keep pushing the market and make thing that are great and get know for them.
This is the 0'G truck baseplate and there is a lot of different designs that I have come 
up with to make it more of a universal designed truck system. 
I have design a riser system that is based on a (old school) riser from the 80's call the cellblock.
After looking over what the cellblock was for back then and what it could for today.
Sometimes change is good to make the skateboards truck work better for the skater.
