RollerSkater Dave: Kingpin for Indy Truck 101 (7. Apr. 2004 04:04)

If hunting through skate shops yields no results, you could go to a hardware store and get some grade 8 bolts of the right diameter and length (you could cut them down if they're a little long). For the head of the bolt you'll have to grind off just a little bit on two opposing sides of the hex so they'll drop down into the slot. Buy matching nuts for the new bolts because your old ones will have a different thread.

Content:	Greetings Daniel, Most of the new kingpins I've come across have been too short. Indy does carry new 101s, but that would be an expensive way to replace kingpins. I don't know of any sources for old longer kingpins. Good luck hunting!

It seems that you not only twisted your kingpins but that you also twisted Vancouver. ;-) : Does anybody know where a can get some spare ones? At the friendly skate shop round the corner?

	: Hi Bernhard, : : I will definitely check the Skateshop around the corner, but I was wondering about the sizes/length of the Kingpins. I had two Indy 101 trucks which Kingpins differed significantly. I hope that I can use a Kingpin of a newer model. I bet Chirs Eggers will know definitely which newer Indy Truck has the same Kingpin size than my old ones. : : Regards, Daniel

	Hi Irene, hi Dave, thanks for the hints. If I won't find some "old stuff" in some skateshops I will try to use a "normal" screw with corresponding nut. Shouldn't be a big deal to cut it down. Regards, Daniel

The hardware store is a good idea I am sure....if not check Daddies boardshop online resource, they might know...
