![](templates/subSilver/images/full_size.gif) Poster: A snowHead
|
I am trying to find new bindings to be mounted on a pair of Trucker skis I purchased new in the late 1970's and will be compatible with nicely broken in, very comfortable pair of pre-ISO accreditation Lange boots. Any ideas? No laughing please!

@newsome@consolidated.net, you could just buy some nice tough sisal and some brass pegs?

OP, you might want to change your username to something other than an email address, to avoid it being mined by bots. Can't help with your query, it's tech that predates me!

There are copies of old US ski magzines archived on the internet, you could pick one around the right date for the skis and look at adverts for bindings in it to see what was current at the time.

I still have my K2 MLS 200s with Marker 54 bindings that I bought new around 1995. I’d like to use them again. Can I use my old bindings if I could find someone to test them?
If not what bindings should I get? My old bindings are about 63 mm

You'll likely not find anyone that can, or is willing, to tell you that it's OK to use them. I'm fine with me using items I've checked or evaluated for my own use, but that's a very different scenario.
The older all metal bindings have material lifing fairly consistent in its properties over many years, compsite type construction very much more difficult for anyone to give a complete answer to, especially in directing someone else, along with the liability that implies.

Can anyone recommend bindings that would fit ?
|
|
|

![](templates/subSilver/images/full_size.gif) You know it makes sense.

@Bushj, Any modern binding designed to mount on a flat ski will work with the skis, no idea what will work with really old boots.
