Ok so I want to start off by saying sorry if I'm not posting this in the right place. Feel free to move it if it's not. But anyways, I got some fbs kingpins and they don't screw in. I've tried many generations of tech deck baseplates an none have worked. I had the same problem with my summit kingpins too. What am I doing wrong

Guest

cut a peice of pivot cut into a quarter of it(cut in half,then cut one of the halfs in half)
and put it inside and put the kingpin in
it should work if you do it right

oh i got it. I realized that i need to use the new generation tech deck baseplate.

dont buy from summit cause their kingpins dont fit into the newer techdeck baseplates. they used to but not now. i still have some hex head black kingpin from NC. they are shorties and wont portrude from ur baseplate. but i cant remove my current ones. anyone can help? i tried the vice and the hammering but it doesnt work cause it keeps shifting here and there. also, will i be able to put my old kingpin back when i remove it? in case i have the same problem like bobby.

dang. summit ones NEVER worked for me. FBS black kingpins and NC shorties allen head black are the best. but my current baseplate kept getting stuck and it fucking pissed me out., like i have 2 extra sets and i cant use them.

Try putting glue in the kingpin hole while the kingpin is in there a little bit. Then once it dries screw it in all of the way.

ok i will try.

you need an allan key

Subject: Re: Kingpin Help Sun Jun 28, 2009 11:08 pm

but my idea in way more efficiant,glue can chip and if you get a kinping that would normally fit then you got to scrape it out sumhow,just use pivot cup
