Indy Kingpins
Howdy yall,
I am having a bit of a problem with the king pin in my indy 215's it is tiny and it just doesnt seem to budge so i can replace it and put some different bushings on. Anyone else suffer this difficulty or has any tips to get the king pin out?
cheers

tried the good old mallet and didnt budge
Mountain Mick said:Hey brothers.
If there Stage nine indies with the new spline type kingpin you can replace it with a Paris kingpin they are the same only the Paris is 12mm longer which is not good for grinding but if you need bigger bushings for DH, problem solved ,support the baseplate well and go at it with a mallet .

you can buy them from longboardskater.com but will have to pay for shipping from the states
there may also be a few guys here who'd have a spare set or 2 lying around
