Which Indy Bushing Style Is Right for You?
Standard Conical
A cone shape uses less urethane than a cylinder, so your truck starts leaning with less effort. Choose conical for a quicker, more responsive turn.
Standard Cylinder
A cylinder shape uses more urethane, giving your trucks more support and a steadier, more predictable feel. It also comes in the widest hardness range, from 78A Super Soft to 96A Super Hard.
Original Cushions
Larger cushions built for Independent Stage 1 through 7 trucks, including the current Stage 4 reissue. Custom formulated for superior stability, with cup washers included.

FAQ
Are 78A bushings too soft for some riders?
They're the softest Indy bushing, best for lightweight riders and cruising setups. Heavier skaters may find them unstable and should look at 88A or 90A.
What's the difference between Indy Standard Conical and Standard Cylinder bushings?
Both use the same ultra high rebound Genuine Parts urethane and fit the same trucks. Conical bushings have less urethane for a quicker, more responsive turn, while cylinder bushings have more urethane for extra support and a steadier feel.
Will these fit my trucks?
Yes, if you ride standard skateboard trucks. Indy Standard bushings are designed for Independent trucks and fit most other brands, including Venture and Thunder. If you ride Independent Stage 1 through 7 or the Stage 4 reissue, choose Original Cushions instead.
Do Indy bushings need to be broken in?
Very little. The ultra high rebound Genuine Parts formula is designed for less break-in time, so they feel right quickly.
