Venture Yellow Bushings

[Ned Providence]

Does anyone know the durometer of Venture yellow bushings that come in 6.1's?

90a

They're all the same, different colors but all the same on the inside where it counts. Just like people.

Those Dlx replacement thunder bushings fit fine in the ventures too?

The thunder ones are a different shape bottom bushing (conical vs barrel in the ventures) and I think the height is slightly different too but I might be wrong about that. DLX does make Supercush bushings which are the right shape and probably the same size. Venture stocks are great as long as they don't crack or slice, but if you are going to replace them then my personal favorite setup is the ace low bushings. They're a little softer and feel broken in right away.

Any proof all the hi’s are the same duro? Hi and lo are different

Please gnar this man for me.

The color is really nice but they're super soft for me

[Ned Providence]

90a makes sense seemed like they were really soft. I swapped them for green supercush @ 94a and like them alot more I weigh a lot so the harder works best.

thats what I’m considering. 200 lbs or so? Supercush 94a or a little more

I'm 280 or so and 94a are working great!

I'm 225, put 78a Indy barrel bottom bushings on both trucks and bones soft front, with bones medium rear. 1/8" riser, and just set up some 58mm spitfires.  Loose, but still not horrible wheel bite.  Turn really well too, semi surfy when they need to be, and pretty stable the rest of the time. 6.1 on 8.5 deck

They're all the same size and duro, hi and lo are identical and the color doesn't matter.

I'm not 100% that they're actually 90a that's just the standard "stock bushing" duro so I'm assuming they're the same. Now that I think about it venture stocks have always felt a little harder than indy 90a when ive swapped between the two so they might actually be like 92a, but the hi and lo and different colors all being identical I'm pretty positive of.


Edit: I hit up DLX support out of curiosity. They're all the same size and duro, but the stock duro is indeed a little harder - they said around 94a. So I guess it logically follows that the green supercush 94a bushings are the same as the stock ones you'll find on Ventures. For what it's worth they definitely feel quite a bit softer than some 95a bushings I've tried like tracker, riptide, and doh-doh so I would still probably grab 92a from other manufacturers if you want to replicate the stock venture feel. Hope that helps.

What are you blathering on about? I tried to ask this same question in the truck thread and it got steamrolled by the same adhd shitposting... so was glad someone else asked in a new thread

The skate deluxe website has the Venture replacement bushings red low 94a , purple hi  98a so.......

I’ll just email DLX myself.

Those are the REPLACEMENT bushings. We're talking about the stock bushings.

Here I'll save you the trouble of emailing them and just copy paste the response to the one I sent

  All Venture stock bushing are the same duro, around 94 or so. And all venture bushing should be interchangeable between style/sizes.

Hope this helps & Have a great weekend!

Okay well email back and you’re right and I’m grown up so not going to get pissy and you deserve an apology for me getting frustrated on your ass.

I don’t get why STOCK bushings are a different duro to their specific harder replacements though? What’s the fucking point of that??

Smh at least I have enough spare stocks piled up (inc. 90’s little rocks till skated for two years stocks...)

Edit... actually just re-read and I got a completely different reply! So... who really knows hahah

“ Thank you for your message to skatedeluxe.

The yellow bushings on the Venture 6.1" trucks have the standard durometer of 90a.

If you have any further questions or comments, let me know.”

Thanks for being an adult about it. I'll remove the snark from my post.

I'm going to assume skate deluxe is doing the same thing I initially did and assuming they're 90a because that's kind of the universal "stock bushing" durometer.

The replacements come in different duros to accommodate people who are different weights or just prefer a softer/harder setup. It's just a way to tweak/customize your ride a little.

Thanks for the legwork guys. Some supercush may be in my future just unsure on which yet for my 200 lbs cruising and non-bowl skating.

Trust me purple bottom is the shit

[Dannydchill]

Just found this thread. I have 6.1s with the clear yellow bushings and 5.8s with the purple bushings. Both came stock. The clear yellow are  definitely softer than the purples. The 6.1s have a black kingpin and the 5.8s have a silver kingpin. Both were bought within 2 months of each other with the 5.8s being bought first.  Just wondering if anyone knew of production changes?
