    The skid in that pic is the non reroute one.

    You can see here how the mid skid is offset from the crossmember to keep all the skids flush with one another. With the reroute done, it'll be snug up against the frame.

    I ordered one of those memory foam mattresses from Amazon last year when I moved. It came vacuum sealed in a box. When you cut the plastic, the mattress pops out and expands. I think it said to give 24 hours for expansion, but within about 5 minutes it looked like it was good to go. Smelled a little weird for a day or two, but once it aired out, it was fine.

    The skid I'm selling will work independently of any others (read: it'll work with your skids) if you were thinking of swapping.

    Hmmm I might go look, was interested in these box mattress cause they have much better warranties.

    Yeah that's what I have been reading comparing brands.

    Wrap a skid plate? Oh no, just use some bedliner.
