The grennett inverted king pin is here. Bringing back the old Bennett from 1977. The Dead Bolt king pin is from 1988 and is new old stock. The king pin is a grade 8. I am using a new insert nut from Grind King that is machined and pressed into the base plate. You can replace it at anytime if needed. All I can say is no more stopping on your king pin on the front truck. The truck is real fun. Bringing the ride of the old truck back for those who used to ride a Bennett back then.

And that little modification may just add Bennett to the list of 'Grindable' bowl trucks for those pesky uber-tight-tranny mini-bowls/mini-pipes that've popped up in a few spots. That list, btw, is damn short, simply because few trucks turn quickly enough to fully use a 7-ft. or tighter radiused ramp or bowl (radii being expressed in the Vertical, not around the lip!). I kept an old G+S Bowlrider set-up with gen-2 Indy's just for that kind of environment. Maybe now I'll have to nab a pair of Vectors for it instead?
