Is there a newer model than this one and has there been any changes made to the factory setup? (cheaper bearings or bushings for example?)

this is the newest version of the tan tien. And there are many difference setups for this board

Bearings weren't the problem. The trucks don't turn as sharp as you'd like. I told myself it was the length of the board which made the turns wider since it's pretty long, but I enjoy turning on my friends 43 incher. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad board, I loved it. Just needs breaking into

Tom, this has all bearings. Not that hard to install with some patience. Note that the original can be very difficult. They are cast. Mine broke I'n half trying to pry it out, and I had to drill and dremel the rest out.

Would luv to help but just don't know. Maybe you can contact the seller; he should have an interchange manual. Main thing I do know is I'll never own another Husky though. Mine had 64 hours when the spindle went out and they laughed at me. Once I tore it down, I learned the upper bearing is a sealed unit. When you grease the spindle, you're only greasing the lower one. The top one burned up and seized. They looked at under warranty because of noise. They said they don't warrant noises, just broken parts. Two weeks later (and warranty ran out one week earlier), it went out and I found two weak idlers that I changed at the same time. Again, wish I could help you.

I had bad luck with bones reds, had to return them twice because of some grinding issue, then got some super reds worked perfectly and runs extremely smooth especially if you clean and lube them on occasion. If you would want to go the cheaper route you have the possibility of getting a few bad bearings vs paying a little more getting better quality. as for which ones last longer I do not know.

Sorry we have been so late in answering. We have been on vacation. What are full extension ball bearings? I will check for you?

Hello, Have reviews on both models on Amazon. Had a bunch of trouble with the standard model, and no trouble with version 2. The version 2 has a lot more metal parts in the rotor head and tail, and digital tail servo which is much more responsive. Please see both reviews. So far I would say the version 2 is worth the extra money. Good day!

Unfortunately it's a cheaper replica. This one wouldn't rev above 3000 rpm. It's total garbage. A former nissan mechanic posted on a forum somewhere I read recently that most aftermarket distributors for this model are bad. Better off finding a used original than gamble with aftermarket. I gambled and lost. Hope you do better than I did. Good luck.

"Bearings" is an overstatement IMHO, though some call bushings bearings. The wheels include a pressed in bushing that rides on the axle. It's been a long time since I got these for my dad, so I don't know if it is a powdered metal oiled busing or a high-density polymer bushing.

Not sure to be honest. I switched them out with Bone Swiss bearings as soon as I got it. However I wouldn't doubt that the stock bearings it comes with aren't terrible.

Mine was the older V brakes, the disc brake model had just come out mine was old stock. Sorry no idea on the forks that's too technical for me lol

I also highly HIGHLY recommend different bushings with these trucks. The stock bushings on these are super duper restrictive, good for downhill at high speeds, but they're no fun for cruising or learning how to skate. So get these and buy new bushings, or try a pair of Paris 180's. They're a much nicer set of trucks for all around skating out of the package. Randalls are great, but like I said the stock bushings are far too restrictive and obstructive for regular skating and carving

Bearings don't need to be changed, made to work with stock ones. But you will need to grind the cast iron quite a bit to get proper turning radius as there is too much metal you will also need to Dremel out where the speed sensor seats as the sensor won't seat properly with the way they cast it. Also for the rear get a 2" to 3" lift block for the rear springs as the 2" shackles aren't enough to sit level by them selves. Leaves room when finished for 265's, I have my Ranger sitting on 265/75 R 17's gives 14"-16"s under the whole truck and about 9"-11" under ther rear diff. You will need to get an alignment when finished as your toe & camber will be way off. Hope this helps. Bearings don't need to be changed, made to work with stock ones.

I first started with a bearings upgrade, which totally changed the feel of the board, then I threw on a set of Gullwing Sidewinder II Trucks, I don't recommend those trucks in particular due to having two kingpins, and the board has a big disadvantage with wheelbite with these trucks, and a bit of speed wobbles. I suggest a set of Paris' or something of the like. First, I'd start with bearings, and just work from there:)

hmm well I used better bushings, and bearings. i started to get speed woble at about 40-45 mph. so safely? around 30-35 mph. Hope that helps!

This is from the seller's [Low Baller] storefront - Contact this seller Phone: 909-979-7392 Not sure if this was the one I used, but recently I received one that sounded like a bearing was bad, they were very helpful and shipped a new one very quickly. Good luck.

its supposed to be 1 year - I've purchased 4 so far & the first 2 went bad in a short period - I contacted the place i purchased them (Hub & Bearing Warehouse) & they NEVER, EVER responded or acknowledged my emails or calls - DO NOT BUY FROM THEM! - these last 2 thru Amazon - personally, if you are planning to keep your vehicle longer than a yr, I'd spend a little more & buy an assembly that has Timken bearings - JMO
