FAQ

What size trucks are these bushings compatible with?

The Bones Hardcore Soft bushings are designed for standard 8‑mm skateboard trucks, which cover the majority of street and park setups released since 2010.

Can I use these bushings for longboard trucks?

While they will physically fit larger longboard trucks, the softness is tuned for skateboards. For longboards, we recommend a firmer bushing to match the different riding dynamics.

How do I install the bushings?

Remove the existing bushing, place the new one into the bushing cup, and re‑insert the kingpin nut. Tighten to your preferred tension—generally 2‑3 turns for a loose feel.

Do the soft black bushings affect board weight?

At just 22.68 g each, the weight impact is negligible, contributing to a lighter overall setup that improves maneuverability.

Are these bushings covered by a warranty?

Yes, Bones offers a limited one‑year warranty against manufacturing defects, giving you confidence in the product’s quality.
