Assembling Trucks to Span Bolsters
1. At this time set aside the Center Trucks (the ones with oval centers). These get installed at the
very end of the build.
2. Carefully remove all 4 of the ¼" #2 black screws from Bag F. Leave the other items in the bag
until they are required later.
3. Place one of the End Trucks on the Span Bolster then insert one of the #2 screws though the
truck into the Span Bolster and slowly turn the screw until it catches the threads previously
made.
4. When the screw is seated correctly, the Truck will move about 1/16" to 1/8" between the Span
Bolster and screw head. DO NOT OVER TIGHEN THE SCREWS!
5. Repeat for the 3 remaining Trucks.
