Bogie Wheel Re-rubbering in Canada
Hello Ron and Dale,
Thank you for your positive references of Big Tyre. Sounds like they can do a very good job for re-rubbering military tires in the Australia/New Zealand area.
I was fortunate enough to pick up Stew Robertson's steel casting for universal carrier bogie wheels. I've purchased a 2 part black polyurethane starter kit and some 3M Silicone mould release spray. I'm going to strip one of my surplus wheels to the rim and give the mould a try. I will post some pictures for comparison. This may help some Canadian carriers owners with re-rubbering wheels on this side of the pond.
Cheers, Richard.
