As skateboard trucks are the components that secure the deck to the wheels, ensuring they are properly assembled is essential. If you're encountering issues with attaching the trucks to your skateboard, have a look at this video on how to fix them onto the deck. We’ll take you through the necessary tools and various steps involved in fitting them to your board:
- Begin by using a tool or a nail to create tiny holes in the grip tape from the underside of the deck.
- Turn the board over and use a small Allen key to expand the holes.
- It's now the moment to insert the screws through the deck.
- Align the truck with the screws and press it in.
- Attach the nuts by hand.
- Utilise a skate tool along with a screwdriver to securely fasten the truck.
- Keep the screwdriver steady and rotate the skate tool. This technique will help prevent the screw's head from being stripped.
Repeat these steps for the second truck, and your trucks will be properly attached!
