Google "rubber rejuvenator". There are a lot of products.

I've used Fedron (from Federal Mining and Manufacturing) successfully.


From the description, it doesn't sound like a rejuvenator will help.

Some photos would help to determine if an off-the-shelf rubber

Also, isn't/wasn't there a place that would rebuild your rubber parts
on a custom basis?



Are you thinking of PRB? They are long gone. What little is left is
now part of Russell Industries. http://www.russellind.com

They have a downloadable cross reference for availaible parts at:

installed it, but I will compare it to the old printed version I have on
hand.
