The gtcpldp.com website has been updated with new
content, photos, examples etc... It's finally coming
together, still aloong ways to go, but now it's starting
to be the site I had envisioned, hopefully it can help
people with their pumping and LDP setups.
There is also quite a bit of new info on the trucks,
and bushing pages..

Bennett Magical LDP Bushings Setup

The Reflex Lime 80a bushings, barrel and tall cone are
amazing. Lathing them and rounding off the corners
makes such a huge difference it's unbelievable.
This is my go-to LDP bushing setup at the moment.
This wold also be ideal for the right slalom course.

Custom GTCPLDP finally done.

I just set this up yesterday. It's got a Glacized Bennett 4.3
front, Grombiz rear, Jet black dyed Lemon/lime Bigzigs.
Bones Reds, front Race west precision spacers, inverted
rear wheels, stainless steel hardware with top washers,
bushings dialed in for him now. It will be in its owners
hands soon. This board is the pinnacle of the GTCPLDP.
I think it's going to be a magic carpet riding board.

"Galacized" Bennett 4.3's coming soon!

I'm busy working on a "Galacized" Bennett 4.3 truck..
It's going to have a custom painted baseplate and
the recessed lettering in the hanger is painted to match.
The hangers have been heavily faced, and the bushing
seats on both sides of the hanger have been sanded,
buffed, smoothed out. The entire hanger is sanded,
and buffed smooth, to a dull satin finish.
It will have a custom bushing setup with Nylon
washer on the bottom, and a Grade 8 flatwasher.
And it will have Khiro spacers.
The pivot cup is replaced with a sanded and buffed
Khiro pivot cup.. The pivot cup is then lubricated
with a special silicone grease that takes out all squeaks
and noise and make the movement within the pivot
smoother and more fluid.
There will also be a very small spacer on the kingpin
between the top and bottom bushings that is
approxiamtely 1/8" tall, it creates a union between
the two bushings, and helps create more rebound..
These trucks will be smoother and more fluid than
an off the shelf Bennett..
I plan on selling these in very limited runs. The will come
in red, yellow, grape, blue, orange, pink, green.
These are kind of like a Bennett (Deluxe)
I will photos ready by tomorrow..
No price yet, but I plan on keeping them affordable.
