| I have g60 bearing wheels, and I have Spinal Wide trucks. I try tightening the bolt/nut while the wheel is on the truck, and when I tighten it fully, it won't spin. Is it because I'm using a washer, something's wrong with the wheel, or something's wrong with the type of truck that I'm using? | |

| it happens a lot, are your g6s backless? sorry i forgot. if they are then you dont need a washer but if they dont then you need to, otherwise you have to glue the nut in really carefully, watch mike schnieders vid on brr trucks, it should help. | |

| my best suggestion - bearing tuning
its most probably because the axles are too short, u know, quality control isnt so strict in stuff like mainstream trucks when ur paying $5 a set. just get some bearing tuning, issues should be resolved | |

| I figured out why it wouldn't spin. The washers that I were using were too fat. (about 2.5 times the size of normal washers). Please close this thread. | |
