Tracker bushingshttp://www.sk8kings.com/Merchant2...de=SKTKR086A&Category_Code=BU25 bucks a pair? Are they really that good? I assume these are for rear trucks and i dont really chew through rear bushings like i do in the front, but still 25 bucks seems pretty high. What makes these worth so much? |

They are no longer manufactured. They were known for their rebound. Venom is making a similar shaped bushing that will be available soon. |

Ah, i see. I guess its true that people always want what they cant have. It seems excessive to cost $25 when ive never seen bushings cost more than $10 a pair. But if this is what the market supports, more power to sk8kings, i hope they sell em all. |

Over time, they'll sell. Stims are not only sick bushings, but collectors also make sure to setup their vintage NOS setups with "mint" discontinued stuff like this. And if you look at the price of JimZ's for DH, the Stims don't look so outrageous for a performance bushing.
But -- slalom racers are not having to salivate all over Stims the way we used to just literally a year ago, with Venoms now on the market! |
