Replacement Metal Skid Strips
Dieformed from 304 stainless steel or cold rolled steel. The strips are cut to correct length. Square holes are punched in the proper location. The stainless strips are available polished and buffed to a mirror finish as can only be obtained with stainless steel. Why stainless? No worry about rust or peeling because the material is solid, not plated. It also has a high resistance to wear and abrasion. Not all stainless is the same. Specify a 300 grade.We have accurate patterns for the following pickups. Specify the year, make, model and box length
of your pickup when placing order (see order form).

sides, note fender and stake pocket locations and decide where to drill holes to attach
angles to box side). Drill holes
