On your front truck, using a caliper, measure the distance from where the wheel flange meets the tread on one wheel to the same point on the other wheel (wheel gauge).

Do the same thing to the wheels on the rear truck and compare the readings. You may find there is a difference and may need to adjust the wheel gauge on the front truck accordingly.
