Att: JimZ Truck owners - Ball-End pivot upgrade

Here we have the stock parallel pivots and my ball-end upgrade.

I'm doing a small batch of these badboys, Very limited quantity.
They make life soo much easier when changing bushes.
Make's it possible to just plug in the pivot and twist the hanger down onto the kingpin like normal trucks.

Also make the hanger compatible with all Randal baseplates so you can vary your setup even more.

My advice is the Randal 28* plate for rear truck on decks without pre-wedging.

Exact fit so they clamp into desired position when hanger screws are tight.
$20 per pair shipped Australia wide.

If you're interested lemme know soon. I'm gonna sell em locally to aussies first then post up to make em available to overseas riders.

Nice work Fitz,
Do the JimZ baseplates have a spherical bearing in the pivot or just an ordinary pivot cup?
Seems odd to have a flat end pivot (the stock one) goin into a rounded pivot cup.
Yours looks the goods!

ps. are there any hangers you dont own?

Stock JimZ pivot bushes are a thru hole only. No spherical bearing (however I'm working on an upgrade for this too).
Parallel pivot means you need to insert hanger straight which is a pain in the ass when the kingpin won't go back any further to allow this.

fitz can you modify normal cast trucks such as paris to have sphericals and whatnot? karrot on SF does this but postage would be a pain..

BUMP
I've got more than enough sets done now and ready to ship. If you know anyone who's got a set of JimZ's let them know.
Once I post up on other forums for overseas buyers they're all gonna get snapped up. This is a one off production run in very limited quantity.

1 pair for Robbo on hold
2 pair for Steve on hold

I can bring em to CHC NACCOS for anyone else interested. Let me know soon.
