Newbee 3links style truck

Probably a couple weeks. Around new year it was around 3 weeks. I have a new set of 4GS on the way and I’m just having it all sent together

I did analysis on cad, it was showing solid as mymountain board truck…but personally i don’t think it is accurate enough, due different treatments and steel.

i been seeking new material for the axles, the new triplelinks is going to use completely new type of steel for manufacturing the axles.

Could I request a tunnel riser version? :face_holding_back_tears:

Sure. How tall would you like it and approx how large of a tunnel?

Here are a couple quick ones I made. Both are 10mm tall. Included are the .step files so you can chop them up as you please!

Question. Would there be a benefit to just replacing my front trucks with 3link?

IIRC @PedroMcJimenez ran a mixed set of trucks like this.

Imo, the front truck is 80%+ of ride feel, rear is tour rudder.
I currently srb HD up front spaced out to be slightly narrower than the bn220 rear.
Ill flipflop from that and a savage tkp up there occasionally.
Imo its a good way to test the waters b4 diving in the deep end and replacing the while drivetrain.

That’s what I was thinking. Probably getting a set and change the front of both thane and pneumatic board before real commitment and new build.

Thane on 3links is quite fun.
Holding high speeds was too easy that I delammed quite a few.

I think I got it to where I want it feels right for a trampa style deck. Turning radius is :fire:

You might want to double check with Ean to make sure the angle you have the truck sets are going to work with mountain board geometry.

yea i was about to say the exact thing looks kinda unstable or very loose for sure id say!

It might be a trick of the pictures, but it looks like you have steeper radius rod angles in the back than the front. You probably want the back flattened out a bit, and the front a bit steeper. Looking like a super fun build. Can’t wait to hear how it rides!

That’ll turn like a pallet jack

Got to get my board out today for the first time and I am really liking these so far. Not many miles on them yet, but first impressions are very easy to ride, turn, and stable. I have my front set at 30°, rear (reverse mounted) at 24°. 90A and 87A fat cones. Can u-turn in the street. Great first impressions @Ean.esk8

This can’t be right. The back looks steeper than the front for sure. The front looks like it can’t be much more than 10°.

Am I misunderstanding what’s going?

I think it’s the angle the photos were taken at. Based on Ethan’s diagram it does look like 30/24.
