I bought this sector 9 Longboard deck, bamboo series. I was looking at the sets for the trunks,bearings,wheels and the other stuff that comes with the set. My question is Do I Have to buy the trunk set of the same brand or can i used any other brand that is cheeper. such as blank, and how do i know if the trunks are for a longboard deck.
Truck bolt patterns are standard so you can use whatever you want. You need to make sure the axle width is correct though. Using too narrow of a truck can cause wheel bite, too wide can make it unwieldy to turn. Different trucks will have different turning characteristics too. I have a difficult time on my daughters Sector 9 because it's turning

I have a sector 9 scarab with the sector 9 65mm 78a wheels. i want to put orangatang wheels or retro wheels on my board. i want a larger size wheel because i dont like the small65mm ones. can i buy any size wheel and they will fit on my board? or will only 65mm wheels fit?
First of all, Orangatang and Retro wheels are the perfect choices and are also what I'm looking at. From what I hear as far as having a top mounted board it may be best or most recommended to go with a 70mm wheel; the Orangatang 4 Presidents which are a 70mm wheel are a good and of course the right size; Now you can also go with retro wheels because

20 in Dubs with Spinners would be pretty sweet.
