Did I Go backwards?

I have a zephyr base and max.. both of which were “upgraded” with the riptide bushings dkp Krank kit. Looking to tighten it up and gain Stability at speed.

Staying within my weight guidelines per durameter, one board Got 90a (with alil 93a) and the other got 93a. I assumed that the quality of the factory bushings from Linnpower were of super low quality so the 99a or whatever they come with wasn’t comparable to aftermarket.

After installing the riptide and taking a shortish ride..

Board feels way soft with wobbles at speeds I could easily touch prior. I’ll definitely start tightening them up, but they are already pretty locked down …

Any advice is appreciated

Help w potential Clarence issue..

Linnpower Zephyr in question here with the factory hubs.. looking to fit the boa sigmas onto my board and factory hubs..

It appears that the posts from the Kegle hub are fully engaged with the holes in the core of the wheel.

The axle nut seems to thread down as much as it ever did..

It’s either perfect, almost perfect, or minorly not flush with the intended seating surface.

Either way it does appear that the hub and the back of the wheel are touching even if it is on the atomic level..…

Good to go/ let it rip?

Or is this gonna create some fucked up issues issues down the road?
