Ive modded a standard Bennett baseplate with an upgraded Grade 8 kingpin. It has no splines around the head, fewer threads at the end, and is a hair shorter. I secured it to the baseplate with Loctite 262, which i trust on my own kingpin. Heres the parts with the original Bennet KP on the right and the new one on the left:

And heres what you get, complete with large cupped washer, large flat washer, and kingpin nut:

I would be interested in trading for a Randal CompII 28* DH baseplate or a pair of the right wheels or whatever else you can think of. It never hurts to ask!

Send me a pm if youd like more pictures.

Bumping my own thread!

This baseplate/kingpin combo is still up for grabs.

Looking to trade for 28* or 50* randal baseplate (with or without kingpin) or a pair of nice wheels or ???

I also have a 5.0 hangar and an RTS-129 if someone wanted to get a complete trucks starter kit.

BTW: for those that were skeptical of the loctite, ive put well over 250 miles on my other mod'd baseplate and the KP is still securely in place.

this offer still avaliable?

i have a 50 degree randal baseplate chilling in my dresser. it needs a home, and i would love to have a second baseplate so i can just swap hangers between two setups. i'll think about it. the baseplates a kind of dirty. hell, i got them used, but they are still in great condition. they have riser pad marks.

Email me if you are interested.
pch06b@acu.edu

i'll send you pics of the plate then.

just make the subject line a reminder of this thread. you can also find me on the fish, as i spend most of my time there. this place has great information, so i dont feel the need to jump in and repeat ppl. but on the fish.. well there are a lot of ppl who don't think, and try to understand stuff truly.

Hey, sorry i missed this the first time around. Im afraid i had some truck trouble of my own and had to use my extra baseplate for myself. thanks for the interest though.

oh, no problem. i was just jumping at the chance for second baseplate, saw that you wanted what i had, and dont use (which is almost never the case in trades) and thought it would be awesome.

it sounds like one of your plates broke? how'd you pull that off?
