Best Bushings for Electric Longboard Riptide APS Upgrade on Backfire G3. 

Venom makes plug barrels for the caliber trucks. The plug is designed to remove lateral play from the trucks. I would look into a set of those board side instead of the riptide bushings you are using. The stock bushings were plug barrels for a reason.

Venom is my go to *but I hear great things about Riptide Krank* ⚡🤙🏼🤙🏼⚡ Kranks have more rebound than Venom but rebound is largely Preference, some people like more rebound, some like less. Unfortunately some people think "more" means "better" - an incorrect understanding. Speed demons have trusted Venoms for years, goin 50, 60mph on 70-80mm wheels. Riptide also offers WFB formula for the least rebound, worth a look for some, especially board side on front truck.

Most people try softer in front & harder in back for more stability & turning

How difference is acceptable between the front and the back? At what point the difference can become dangerous? Either difference in duro or tightening the king pin.

riptides are great. i always tell ppl to buy a few different durometers online. 9 bucks a pair. so instead if buying a kit, its smarter and cost affective to purchase some 89-90-93-96 or whatever they are. i have a ton. i also really like evolve bushing kit. those are awesome too.. the venoms were ok. but u spend like a dollar more u get better rebound and response from the board. also, for more stability without compromising the carve, u can get Array cnc machined washers with a higher wall. exway has em too.. good stuff bro🤙🏼

You gonna be a tech review channel soon! Lol

I run 96a on my exway all barrel krank i weigh 220 no wobble at 35

So you recommend 92.5 riptides on the back and 90.0 on the front??

chubby/insert bushings is the way to go.
