truck help

[xbok919@hotmail]

im new at skateboarding and my question is if you buy new trucks and wheels do you need new bearings?

No just use your old ones.Follow the steps here http://www.ramprage.com/tuneups/skateboard_tune_ups/1/133 It will tell you how to get your bearings out.

How do you get them back in? Just put the bearing on the truck then the wheel and push?

[snakeyes17]

Yes, that is correct.

What I do is if they don't want to squeeze in, try to put them in the wheel as much as you can, then set them onto the truck with the bearing side in. Use something like a wrench or any sort of hammering tool and give the wheels a spin while tapping the wheel against the truck. This will get the bearing to sit in and get it nice and even. Finish it off by screwing it in until it stops making the stretching noise it makes when it is situating.
