Independent Bushings 88a Standard Cylinder Red
by
Independent
SKU: INDY418
Description
Independent Standard Cylinder Bushings 88A Soft in red give you a loose, easy turn with the extra support of a cylinder shape. The ultra high rebound Genuine Parts urethane means less break-in time and a quick return to center.
Compared to the conical 88A, the cylinder version feels a little steadier under your feet. It's a great fit for lighter riders and transition skaters who want soft trucks that still feel controlled.
Who 88A Soft Standard Cylinder Are For
- Lighter riders who want an easy, responsive turn
- Bowl, pool, and transition skaters
- Cruising and carving
- Skaters who want loose trucks without backing off the kingpin nut
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.

Benefits

FAQ
Can soft bushings cause wheel bite?
Looser trucks lean further, so wheel bite is more likely with large wheels or low trucks. Riser pads fix this if it happens.
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.
What comes in the package?
Enough bushings and bushing washers to outfit both trucks on one board.
