Have done my footboard safty.

[Lars 526]

Have added the anti-slip tape on my footboard today, is the dangerous slippery when there is snow on them, so I hope this helps

i've done the same to mine and it helps immensely..

[Don1977 605]

That's what I used. Had some left over from doing some van running boards.

They do make a big difference. I got 2 12x12 sheets of this from Harbor Freight and cut them to 6" wide.

Where did you guys get the anti-slip tape? I've been thinking about putting some on my Winter workers.

I saw several sizes of this material at Lowes yesterday....was in the "safety dept" stuff

Home stores, hardware stores in the safty section or painting is where I found it, it's used for steps.

Here is a link to one of our venders that sells new running board mats that look like the original ones at a good price. http://www.classickitchensandmore.com/wheel-horse-tractors-parts-c-42.html

Here is what I use. It is the original material that Wheel Horse used on many of their tractors.

Unlike the Home Depot stuff, and some of the pads I have seen at shows, it is a true 1/8" rib. I stock the stuff in large rolls and just cut to size as I need it, and apply it with double-sided flooring tape.

Martin Told me he uses the tape the kids use on their skateboards which can be purchased in big rolls at a skateboard store!

:USA: Hi Bob Nice job did u happen to buy it at Home Depot??? that is where I got mine it works well to keep your feet in place for sudden stops if needed. enjoy the tractor. T/Care Gary B............

My ribbed pad material is NOT from Home Depot. Their material is a smaller rib and the overall thickness is about 1/2 of mine. I get my material from a company the specializes in slip prevention products. The double-sided tape though is available at Home Depot and Lowe's and goes by the name Rhino-Grip.

I found some nice think rubber foot pads at WalMart. They were about 4" x 16" and about 1/4" thick, with a diamond tread. There are two in a pack for about $8. One pack did one foot rest on my D200 so two packs did thye whole thing. They are self adhesive and stick really well. They were located near the automotive lighting products (tail lights, etc.) at my local Wally World.

Good source for the "sandpaper" style tape: http://www.antisliptapeshop.com/

[DoctorHfuhruhurr 137]

I've used the Wal-Mart diamond plate rubber with adhesive back mentioned previously.

I've also used the 1/8" corrugated fine ribbed style sold by the foot from here www.rubbercal.com/Corrugated_Fine_Rib.html

Both worked fine for me.

heres another route,spray for rocker gaurds,and its paintable and i add grit to it to make it really sticky

I have been using the skateboard stuff for a while now and it works great. It was a lot cheaper than some stuff I bought from an on-line store. The stuff from the on-line store was thicker but three times as much. It was made for commercial use on stairs and what have you.
