Diggin the 8 wheeler so much, but it's a pain swapping out wheels (removing trucks),
so I figure gonna need a second one setup!

Here is first draft of 8-Rider #2.


Tracker Mid Tracks, Bones Yellow Medium on all bottom bushing, Bones Blue soft on all top bushings, Orange Cowskulls on the inside track, orange min-dubz on the outside track. Big Ugly Stick rails, Powell Nosegaurd, 1/8" hard riders. Stickered properly.

@ buymedrinky... that is a true work of uber-pig art. VERY nice job. How does that baby ride?

@ 2nd.... WTF???? Dude you can have your other other set of Gassers back, if ya need 'em. LOL What the hell were you thinking of when you assembled that monstrosity?? It's like Franken-Eight. "That's just not right! You'll put an eye out with that thing!!" Look at your post # on that last post..... that's IT... the DEVIL made you do it!!

Really hmmm....Well been running the 1/8" risers on 8 #1 for awhile and no problems at all. Just figured I will not be worrying about wheel bite too much with the short-axle mid-tracks even when running them real loose. So far haven't had any problems.

Tom Fain (major 8 ripper) who does not post here recently got a BDS Eight and made some mods to it....thought youse guys might like to see. He took the wheelbase down to about 16" and gave it a snub nose....trippy, he loves it though!

Got a note from Tom about the trucks....They are "Generic" trucks that are very similar to Bennets. He thinks he will replace them soon with Trackers but says they handle pretty decent.

Those trucks almost look like an ancient set of Veriflex trucks... 2nd, what was your conclusion when you mixed the white and black wheels on your 8 (Ebony & Ivory) ??? Roger "Doc".
