Steps for Installing Skateboard Trucks
Skateboard trucks serve the crucial role of connecting your deck to the wheels, so ensuring they are properly mounted is essential. If you're encountering difficulties affixing your skateboard trucks, this video provides guidance on attaching them to the deck. We’ll outline the necessary tools and each step required to secure them to your board:
- Initially, with a tool or nail, make tiny punctures in the grip tape from beneath the deck.
- Turn the board over and enlarge the punctures using a small Allen key.
- Proceed to insert the screws through the deck.
- Position the truck over the screws and push it into place.
- Begin threading on the nuts with your fingers.
- With the assistance of a skate tool and a screwdriver, completely fasten down the truck.
- Twist the skate tool while the screwdriver remains steady. This technique prevents the screw head from being stripped.
Perform the same steps for the second truck, and your trucks will be securely installed!
