Do bones bushing work in venture HIs?
When I was riding Thunder and then eventually Venture I would swap the bushings for Bones day one. Never had an issue.
-
For me it’s the best truck for bones bushings.
-
I got the bones soft in my 5.8s and they're work great.
Since we got this thread, I'm thinkin about getting some bones mediums to try and do some dual duro action, medium on top and soft on bottom. Anyone else tried this?

Not with bones but I have with Thunders before and liked it. They ended up being similar to how ace are with their bushings.
-
I don't see a point with Venture. The soft low/harder top combo tends to make the truck lean a ton off the top and resist bottoming out or deep turning more, which is what Ventures do stock.
-
venture stability is lost with double conical bushings but cool if thats what youre into
-
I have Bones mediums in my 5.6 V-hollows. Good combo! I had the bushings ready to go when I first set up a Hockey 8.18 with the Ventures, and I'm glad I did cause the stock purple bushings literally cracked in half within 10 minutes of doing flat ground tricks in my garage. Bones bushings don't last forever, but i can usually get a good 8 months to a year on a good set.
-
uhm.
yes.
mediums in 5.6 hollow his.
-
Yeah they work great. I use the bones hard in my 5.8s. Way more stable than the stock and turn/pinch better.

Funny enough that's what most Venture team riders seem to do with them tho
-
Wait...so if you switch up the bushings they turn?
-
Should the question be changed to "How long do bones bushings work in venture His?"
Yes they will work in any truck, but they often do not last with the hard plastic splitting with the rest of the bushing.
I guess everyone knows that already.
As you were.

In my experience bones bushing last the longest in ventures.
Conical bushing on the bottom/and the flat washer on top increases the turn, significantly, in my experience. On lo’s as well.

That is a plus then. Everything else is top notch in the Bones hardware department, but I have a box that is rather full of all the destroyed bones bushings, some only lasting a few sessions, but I also put that down to the user (or abuser) of that set, but usually they seem not to last half as long as other good / well known brands.
-
They work but I don't really like the way they feel. The best thing about ventures is the stability and with conical bushings I feel like you sacrifice some of that in exchange for a bit more of a snappy feel. Kind of the same thing as putting them in Indys, its not bad but they just don't feel right to me. Venture stocks take a while to break in but once they do they're perfect. Probably my favorite stock bushing (films are close though).
-
They work fine in ventures until you do some slappys and blow them out.

Yup, that's how I last ran my Ventures. Works great but they lose that Venture stability tho....they get a bit tippy. Bones softs are pretty damn soft, you got to want loose trucks to use them if you're over 100lbs. Prefer 88a barrel bottom and harder tops (ACE bushings feel fucking great in Ventures, super swervy)

Which bushings do I need to get the original venture feeling?

I’ve had bones hard in my 5.8ti for a year or so, almost ground to the axle but bushings are holding up fine.
Tried mediums before but they felt too loose compared to stock so I went with hard and it felt fine.

I think the Bones hard bushings seem to hold up a lot better than the mediums and softs too. Just have way too many of them with blown out cores or even the bushing just splits around the core.
They actually wear in really well too, given they are so stiff when new, but after a few solid sessions, they feel more like stiff mediums, or at least all the used ones do that come from a few people I know.
Do you have all washers still on, or only the Bones washer, or what setup do you have on your trucks in terms of washers?
-
When using bones (always hards these days as noted above they break in to 'new' mediums essentially): Flat washer on the bottom, maybe a top depending on the truck's clearance/kingpin.
Non-bones I use the flat/sleeved array washers to replicate bones (being a flat washer also helps with any truck...venture or slappy...that binds with a regs washer on top).
-
Disposable set up. Might as well just throw washers on only. It's going to feel like it in 2 months exactly.
Shit can tear right off.
Unless you bushing and washer.
Then it's.
