I started out running bearings throughout the truck, but have resorted back to bushings for the knuckles, since i couldnt keep the bearings alive due to over tightening the wheels. Bushings last alot longer and i can crank the wheels down tight.

Trail truck rides on bushings. Bearings get beat hard in the crap.
