    SOLD
    Hi, just put in a long range automotive tank, so selling my trail toys UHMW polyethylene DCLB gas tank skid. I really liked this skid, it is slippery and super puncture resistant so it doesn't weigh the truck down further than needed on the drivers side, and anything that hits it will slide off easily. Already been installed, so a bit dusty, but the straps and buckles and loops have been bent and customized to optimize the fit. This will save you a bunch of time, considering it took a while to figure out how to modify the buckles and mounts can go on the outside, tight, without rubbing the leaf spring.

    All the webbing is cut extra long and was zip tied in place. So you won't have to buy new straps, it is 100% there and going to be easy for you to install.

    $OLD Local pickup would be awesome. Shipping will probably come in 2 parts, one box with hardware, and one with a label directly on the skid. But we'll see, maybe I can getaway with the parts just taped down and a label stuck on it. I'll try to save money on shipping if possible.

    Let me know what you think, will entertain offers.

    Looks like they are currently going for $175 plus shipping.

    Lots of interest in this, more than expected. I did go measure the thickness of this skid, it is 0.318" thick according to my calipers, so probably nominally 5/16" (0.3125"). This is thicker than the current offering from Trail Toys, where they say the new ones are 1/4". This must be the older style, thicker, stronger, but also a bit heavier.

    I probably need that. But, which long range tank did you install? Details?

    I didn't even know there were multiple ones. The main replacement tank from long range automotive that I know of is 129L, or about 33 ish gallons.

    Please hang tight with the lack of response with shipping quotes. First, I'm prioritizing local sale, with extra priority to people wanting multiple items. Then shipping to people who want multiple items...

    With items this bulky, it cannot simply be first come first served, since shipping these types of large heavy items takes an extra amount of time to package, quote, and deal with in general. Probably would be different with small boxed up items.

    Thanks for your undersanding
