jcarter433 1 #1 Posted June 12, 2013 Does anyone on here know where i can get new floor board mats for my 520HC without spending $60 each for them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,146 #2 Posted June 12, 2013 On a budget, this stuff can be cut to fit your floorboards. Just find the price you like. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_nkw=skateboard+grip+tape&_frs=1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,520 #6 Posted June 12, 2013 Take a peek-a-boo in my gallery. Most of the footrests have this on 'em http://shop.ccs.com/product/model:119559/sku:61-33654/mob-perforated-grip-tape/black/&SID=7284&inceptor=1&cm_mmc=SEM-_-Engine-_-Google-_-Plusbox Been using coarse grip tape for years. Easy to apply, stays put, inexpensive. I did bookmark amcrules00 link, nice. Thank You! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheel Horse Kid 105 #7 Posted June 12, 2013 Very good thread! Am wanting to replace the ones on my 520 eventually and now I have a good idea of what my options are! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Catt 13 #9 Posted June 12, 2013 I used Classic Kitchens and 3M #80 spray adhesive. I used masking tape for the outline and to cover the holes to keep the adhesive off some areas. I sprayed both the mat and the metal per the instructions. It holds really well. I didn't have a final picture of the floor board (just the whole tractor). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToroHorse 5 #10 Posted June 12, 2013 Great website, interesting mix of stuff. Didn't see any Boomerang pattern Formica counter tops though. Finishing a repaint of a 244H, will certainly replace the rubber footrests. A note on one of the parts shown there, the fuse block & terminals. $18.00 there, but it is available from Mouser electronics for $3.77 and $0.29 for the crimp terminals: Fuse block: Mouser Part #: 829-12004943 Terminals: Mouser part #: 829-12020321 Common part used on custom cars etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorHfuhruhurr 137 #11 Posted June 12, 2013 If you're not looking for OEM I've used these in the past. I've seen them at Walmart, and Harbor Freight ($2.79). I think Lowe's and Home Depot have them also. http://www.harborfreight.com/self-adhesive-rubber-safety-step-tread-98856.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,520 #12 Posted June 13, 2013 No adhesive needed for the coarse skateboard grip tape, peel and stick. One item I like 'bout the "stuff" is the micro holes. These release air, never a bubble when applied. I apply the tape while the sheetmetal is still on the Horse. Simple. The same grip tape has been on a couple of my horses, for a few years. I apply the tape after removing the carriage bolts. Then razor just a slice corner to corner where the carriage bolt will be reinstalled. Another point is the width. Skateboard grip tape is 'bout 9" wide and 33" long. As shown in my gallery, one piece does both foot rests. The leftover I use like sandpaper or emery cloth. Really lasts!

oldblue1993 98 #13 Posted June 13, 2013 Hey thanks for the topic, I have been searching for the same thing "almost used truck bed lining before this" . Thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcarter433 1 #14 Posted June 13, 2013 Wow thanks everyone for the replies it was incredibly helpful i think i will end up going with the classic kitchen oem copies they look great on that horse catt. Im doing a "restoration" i used quotations because its more of a piece by piece facelift as i dont want my 520 down for more than a day or two at a time since i use it alot. Im just fixing things that i come accross that i see are in need of repair and repainting the metal a piece at a time i will post some pics when i get the floor boards done! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
