Good morning Ted.
Those are easy to "re-rubber" if you have an oxy-acetylene torch, a piece of sheet rubber of the correct thickness and a robust bench vise. If you're interested I can tell you how I did mine about 45 years ago and they are still fine.
Did you finish that 3.55 rear gear conversion?

Hi ray, working on it now. Getting ready to set the pinion to ring clearance and was just about to reference your article. I posted some pictures over on the truck’s restoration thread on the AACA site. It’s all powder coated and will be real nice once it’s together. Used a nice big blacksmiths file to round the tube for the perches. It made easy work of it. Wanted to ask you, were there tool trays under the seat frame to close off the hole under the seat to the ground? Seem like there should be something there as it’s a waste of wide open space.
Also, have the torches and a very stout vice so email me the directions for removing and replacing the rubber please.
Thanks, Ted
