Venture stock bottom bushings. One end is flat and the other has a rounder edge. Which side is facing up when I put them on?

ChildoftheGhetto · « **Reply #1 on:** January 19, 2011, 07:57:01 PM »

the round part.

the round part.

So the flat side is facing the bottom washer?

God damn it I'm so pissed my local shop doesn't carry venture

I've had them on every single board I've bought for the last 6 years.

Are you 100% positive? I'm talking about the bottom bushings here, the top is easy to figure out.
So for bottom bushings, round part is facing up?
Don't mind this OCD, thanks.

hahahahaha is it even that serious. yes, the super flat part is the one that touches the washer.

ChildOfTheBurbs · « **Reply #7 on:** January 23, 2011, 08:10:58 PM »

Crucial, but thanks.

Apparently, no one else on here skates ventures, or this thread was too lame for people to reply.

One more thing. Have you tried the V5's?

Don't stress about the bushings too much my friend, it doesn't matter much.

I've got a set of the new ones as a back up - not sure when i'll try them though.

Wasn't there some mention of a 149 size venture coming out sometime? I'd be interested in those.

ventures suck, just buy thunders

ChildoftheGhetto · « **Reply #12 on:** January 25, 2011, 08:33:04 PM »

ventures are the best trucks.

^I don't know, I had a pair for only a couple of months and the hangar completely snapped. And, everyone I know who had a pair had problems with their kingpins.

ChildoftheGhetto · « **Reply #14 on:** January 26, 2011, 05:21:42 AM »

you're probably skating the lows. you're not supposed to skate low trucks anyway.

dankradschwag · « **Reply #15 on:** January 26, 2011, 08:23:50 AM »

yeah, but if he wanted to skate lows, the thunder lows would work perfectly. ventures are so 2001...

ChildoftheGhetto · « **Reply #16 on:** January 26, 2011, 08:26:21 AM »

thunders suck.

clamy · « **Reply #17 on:** January 26, 2011, 02:36:55 PM »

Yeah, they were the lows. I remember buying them only cause of the color.

brownjenkin · « **Reply #18 on:** January 26, 2011, 04:01:41 PM »

I think I'm going to try Ventures again. I skated them from '94 until about five years ago. I wanted a wider truck but I could only ever find the 5.0 lows, so I went with Indy 139s. Been on them since. The Venture high 5.25s are easier to come by these days.

I skated venture for about three years straight and had to make the switch because i couldn't find the high/wide ones. Has anyone seen the 5.75s yet?
