What do you mean by "rearange"? Maybe you put the deck back the wrong way? Are the trucks facing outward? If they aren't, then that might be your problem. Did you take the trucks apart?

If your board is the exact same as before, then just ride around doing a lot of turns.

u probably need to break in the bushings again.

i had this same problem with my old board, try leaning a bit more on the other side of the board, or also you can loosen the kingpin, and tighten it again while pulling down on one side, and it will lean more to that side so you can try to counter lean the lean... i dont really know how to explain it, its confusing

Do some tic-tacs around in cricles for awhile, and turn and carve around. My guess is that the bushings need set in. Give it some time.

I agree... bushings or the trucks are just too tight.
