Just curious if anyone has vulcanized there rubber tracks or rubber bogie wheels on their machines. I have read some about track repair but there isn't a lot of info out there about it. There are companies that claim they can repair a track even if it's ripped in half. Obviously this wouldn't be worth doing if the track were badly worn, but might be worth while for a fairly good track. As far as bogie/idler wheels go it seems like this could be done as long as the core were still solid/good shape. Just wondering if anyone knows anything about the process?
