    I have some Tred boards I got for free with my lift and have been cracked and was wondering if they can be repaired. We had to use them to get a buddies diesel out of 14in or so of snow on the trail back to my camp in a Pa state forest. There was alot of rocks and just got put on one that was under the snow. I like the boards and the price was right just wondering if the crack can be fixed. It's not terrible and they still can be used and have been, just would like to fix them. Sorry if there's a thread about this already just couldn't find it

    Before you try to fix it try to look into warranty replacement. From what I understand they carry a limited lifetime warranty , and there were a bunch people that successfully received new threads when the old ones broke.
    As for fixing, I don't know, sorry. I haven't heard of people fixing them.
    Good luck with your endeavors!

    Ok. If I don't get new ones was thinking of using a fiberglass kit and putting it on both sides. I've used them before to fix other things like plastic bins on salt spreaders on plow trucks and it worked good

    I was thinking Fiberglass maybe with some metal reinforcement depending on the break

    Was thinking something like that also. It's not a bad crack, if I remember I'll try to get a picture later today
