I had all the bogies retreaded and they done a great gob, I have put about 25 miles on it and so far no problems.

Don't tell Gary.

Glad to see that they are working.

Keep us posted on the road tests.

My originals are still in really good shape but I have another set of crabs I may have done for down the road.

do you have a specific contact with the company?. Did you have to remove the old rubber from the bogies or prepare them in anyway?

thanks

I removed the rubber, they took it from there they sand blasted the rim's.
Talk to miss Kathie she will put you through to Scott he is the owner, that is who I dealt with they are really good people and done a really good job.

It looks like Scott may be able to help me with some loose inner pads on my M548 that are not available without buying the whole track shoe .

I had to change one of my bogies out. I only use a jack , pray bar, sockets and breaker bar.

Hi from New Orleans Wendel!!

Those look good, I am glad to see that you found some one local to do them. It looks like edge of yours are smooth and shiny, did they come like that or did you do it? When I had mine retread the company, a different one, I took mine to removed the rubber for me. Which save me a major headache.

Cap Crank, Gary has already went off on my retreads on how they would be to hard vs the NOS rubber ones and damage the tracks and how they wouldn't look right. Later he went on to comment how he had sold 8 sets of NOS ones since I first mentioned mine. I would almost guarantee that any good urethane retread will last longer than one of those NOS ones.

Again good job Watson.

Dinadin,

They are just the way you see them, the only thing that needed to have been done different is I would have rounded the edge a little more Scott knows that now and the next ones he does he will have the tool bit for his lay to take care of that as far as being to hard we made them one level harder then stock, and as fare as that just mashing on them I cant tell the difference. I like guys like Gary but there there to sell parts! I am building mine to drive, I will never have a kid when I am in a parade come up to me and say hey buddy those bogies are not original.

Thanks watson
