• Step 3: Repeat steps 6 through 8 for the rear truck.
• Step 4: Replace your wheels if you’ve taken them off.
• FACT: Tony Hawk was the first to successfully execute and land a 900, a trick where you turn two and half times in the air before landing.
• Step 5: Line up the new front truck and slip on the existing bolts.
• Step 6: Repeat this for each bolt and nut on both trucks.
• Step 7: Insert the screwdriver or hex wrench into the bolt on the top of the deck.
• TIP: Remove your wheels if you can’t reach the truck bolts with them on.
• Step 8: Place your socket wrench or skate tool over the bolt on the bottom of the deck.
• Step 9: Take off the nut and the truck should slip right off the bolts.
• TIP: You can leave the bolts for the new truck or remove and replace them, if you prefer.
• Step 10: Turn your deck onto its side.
