953 nut 55,198 #2 Posted January 30, 2019 Depending on the year, most use 1/8" ribbed rubber mat. You can find it at good carpit or industrial supply houses. You can find them on ready cut for your model. One thing we ask of all new members is of your Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan693 510 #4 Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) If you have a HF around you they sell black self stick running board pads in a diamond plate pattern. Im grabbing a few of them next time in there. https://www.harborfreight.com/self-adhesive-rubber-safety-step-tread-98856.html Edited January 30, 2019 by Dan693 add link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ohiofarmer 3,265 #5 Posted January 30, 2019 Without 100% coverage of the adhesive, the OEM style rubber causes the paint to rust and bubble.i just get some leftover Rustoleum black paint and mix some sand in it. maybe even some black beauty blasting media for more bite. It actually works well to sprinkle dry sand over the top of a couple of coats Mixing paint and sand in the bucket tends to make it bunch up when you brush it I did paint and sand on a motorcycle lift and am pleased with the results I have a Harbor freight motorcycle lift with their supplied rubber padding, and it just swelled up and got sticky and came loose if oil spilled on it. Hopefully the tread material that Dan693 mentioned is oil resistant, but you never know whether or not you get a great product or a boobie prize with HFT i would have full confidence in this stuff, made for big hay balers.. https://north40.com/apache-7-3-ply-diamond-baler-belting-by-the-foot i think Tractor supply has some as well.
