How do you replace bearings on a skateboard?

you unscrew  the nuts in the wheel that attach them to the trucks. the best way to do this is with a standard skate tool from your nearest skateshop. remove the current bearings with a screwdriver by poking them out and replace the new bearings and the little pipe piece in between in the same placethey were before. this can be done with your hands

instead of changing the ball bearings, it would be more effective and convenient to change the whole bearing.  abec 5's are good bearings, and i would recommend them.  to change the bearings, unbolt the wheels, and pop the bearings out, stick the new ones in, and bolt the wheels back on.

I'm assuming you mean basic hub assembly, or possibly just putting the rear cassette back on. But possibly you mean spokes and rim assembly and 'true'ing' the wheel.\n\nRegardless of how bad a state you back wheel is in, you will likely need specialist bike tools to complete the task. I know it took me a while to obtain the right tools and I was only swapping my rear cassette from my original wheel onto a new one that I had bought.\n\nSo assuming you now have the right tools and dont want to pay a bike shop to do the task (Very understandable), I recommend you use one of the following websites. They are very informative, step by step pictures provided for all your repair needs.\n\nhttp://www.parktool.com/repair/\nProbably the best.\n\nhttp://www.bikewebsite.com/repair-bike-index.htm\nAlternative option to try.

well there's no such thing as a pro skateboard...but what do you mean by what kind of bearings...brand or abec?  if you're talking about abec then most pro street skaters use abec-5 bearings, while vert skaters like a bit more speed. so theyll use abec-7.  abec-3,5, and 7 are the most common.  the higher the number the faster and longer the bearing will make the wheel spin, but they need cleaned often and dont last as long.  as for the brand, they will skate bearings from whichever company gives them sponsorship.\n\nmost pros do not skate element bearings, they skate whoever they're sponsored by.

NO problem. Why not??Well WD40 it works as a lubricant and eliminates squeeks on bearings and some old door panels. After some spray at it, it works fine. Well i've always put em on my skateboard bearings and it works fine for me. try 1t.

First off, if u are goofy, put your right foot forward close to the front screws and towards the middle not the edge, and left one behind you really close to the back edge. With both of your feet lean on your balls of ur feet, and with your left foot tip the skateboard were there is only one end of it one the floor, and at the exact same time you ROLL/SLIDE your right foot/toe upwards on the skateboard, you have to roll with enough force that the skateboard jumps into the air. If you are regular same thing just visaversa.

Useing a very fine metal blade that will contact the flat area of the shaft that the number wheels are mounted on, Just hold the shaft and rotate the wheel untill the new number you want to use is in the old position. You must prevent the shaft from rotating while changeing numbers.\nCaution.....do this just one wheel at a time or you will lock yourself out.     Any good locksmith can do it for you in seconds. These directions came with the case originally.....These are NOT secrets. By the way, the lock must be open at the time.

My advice would be buy a Sihmanno reel. Just looked at them in Cabella's the other day. Plus I had three all with a high speed retrieve. SS ball bearings. Last years with proper care.
