RipTide Pivot Cups & Tubes are the result of two years of beta testing in every possible condition that Colorado's high country can deliver.
RipTide's Pivots are specifically designed for each truck and do not offer universal styles because of the compromises a universal pivot forces you to make. In some cases, they offer both tubes & cups for the same truck. Both offer the smooth turning benefits of RipTide's exclusive internally lubricated WFB Urethane in 96a, but the Tube offers even lower friction due to the reduced surface contact with the nose of the hanger.
Specifically designed for each truck
Lively & Responsive
Hand-poured into Custom-made molds, then the cup end is machined to fit the truck's base plate perfectly
No machining imperfections and no heat-affected zone in the super smooth pivot contact area
