I think that social shold carry these washers, seems a little bit silly but these are not at all ordanary.
Here is Griffin Skates info on the product.
At Griffin Skateboards, we have noticed there is a problem with the standard washer cups on all stock skateboard trucks today. People are snapping their kingpins on their trucks left and right. The grade 8 washer and grade 8 kingpin in combination with bushings that are too soft are hanging up the kingpin and snapping it. Old, traditional washer cups surf around on the bushing and on the kingpin too much. It's about time we have a state of the art washer cup that works to help the rider be safe. We have been working on solving this problem since 2009. We believe we have the solution: The "Axcelspring Washer Cup"! We have already sent some to our best customers with an excellent response.
Why Are These Better?
The center sleeve puts the pressure on the center of the bushing, giving it more energy. The facing on either side of the washers gives extra grip to help grab onto the baseplate and the bushing. No movement equals straight power. It's made in the USA in a one inch size and is machined from 303 stainless steel. We will be releasing other sizes soon.
How Do I Install Them?
Take the "Axcelspring Washer Cup" and lay it on a table with the sleeve facing upward. Press the bushing onto the sleeve and it should "snap" into place. A harder bushing will need a little more work, but can be done in the same way. If you're having difficulties, take the kingpin and point the head down toward the table, add the washer (sleeve up) an then add the bushing.
I know if social got them in I would buy 2 sets (4 total washers) and if I liked them I would send everyone who I sold them on to Social.
