Grennett truck inverted king pinJohn and I have been working on this for a year. Thanks for the help John. The Grennett is bringing the Bennett back to 1977. The inverted king pin makes the truck not hang up or stop on things anymore. Chris Yandall and I are the vary first to have this set up. I have two more orders to build these trucks. If you have a front truck and want me to make it into a Grennett . please email me at thane@griffinskateboards.comThanks GriffinSK8

Got my Grennett.
Kingpin still hangs below the axle but it does not seem like a hook now. Thanks Thane! |

Feels good. The Pulse with 6.0's really shines IMO. I had been using the Virages on it and there is a coming home feeling with the Bennett.N The polished pivot is butter. | ||
