Jebinc’s rubber bed liner mod

[Ingo B]

Did your stall mat smell go away? Thinking about using them for our workout room

Yeah, mostly, but I'm also one of those weirdos who don't mind the smell. It reminds me why I'm there. Haha.

HD website indicates it’s out of stock pretty much everywhere in the Denver area. I wonder if that’s really the case or if that’s a flaw in their inventory tracker.

For my location, I got the same status, but there was an entire row of them when I got there. Suspect HD's inventory system is not that solid.

WIMPY!!!

Go with a 1/2” thick HD 5’ x 7’ trailer mat that’s wide enough to cover the entire bed. Bonus: you will have enough material left over to place a nice rubber mat in front of your rolling toolbox in your garage.

How about this option: if you have a Tractor Supply, Murdochs, Wilco or other Farm Supply store, look at a stall mat. Heavy, heavy duty rubber. Used for my 2004 Tacoma( small Tacoma)bed mat for truck in HI, where I live. Buying one for my RT1 that is on boat to Nawiliwili as we speak. They are heavy. I used a utility knife to customize wheel well cut outs. It works but takes time. RIT bed is wider than 04 Tacoma. Hope it fits in without cutting. Will post link after I post this.

Any farm store will carry stall mats. Look in your area for a Farm Supply store. Doesnt have to be Murdochs. Can’t afford to ship these. Buy local.

Yeah, they do not ship. The HD mat is also 100% recycled rubber and more like 1/2” thick. And, it’s readily available.

The R1T is 4’ wide, BETWEEN wheel wells.

I had this HD mat for four months and it did great. The one thing that killed it was an oil spill. I had a jug of used motor oil that tipped over and leaked on the mat causing it to expand and crinkle up where the oil spilled. I'll probably get another or try a horse stall mat if I can find one of the thinner ones.

Rubber mats are petroleum based products, so oil, gas, kerosene, if spilled, will compromise the integrity of the mat (any brand).

Thank you @jebinc for another terrific mod. I usually live at Home Depot on the weekends but as soon as I saw your post I made an extra trip JUST for this mat. ?

I'm not bagging on the HD mat. I actually just went out and bought another one since they
they're cheap and I don't foresee having another oil spill but I don't think all rubber mats would react this way to oil. These are made out of bonded together rubber chunks, probably old tires. Kinda like rubber particle board. Solid rubber mats like horse stall mats or Toyota Tacoma factory mats wouldn't absorb oil or solvents and disintegrate like the HD mat.

They would, if petroleum based rubber, but would likely take a longer time if smooth and vulcanized. The HD mat is a bit "course" as you say, which allows more surface area/pooling where the oil can do its damage. Also, not sure what the bonding agent is for the "chucks". It's possible that's what failed first. Anyway, these are inexpensive, so easily replaced.

Found a good deal on a horse stall mat (on the thicker side) at my local tractor supply yesterday. For those who have opted for this route. How are you cutting the rubber, just exacto-knife?

I built out my garage gym a few years ago, and had to cut a bunch of stall mats.

Once you have your cuts marked, secure a straight edge to the lines. I used a T-square held down by a 60 pound slam ball on one end, my knee on the other. This is important for preventing the edge from shifting. Using a utility knife, start running the blade along said straight edge. Once you have a small notch, set PVC pipe under the cut (same direction, not perpendicular) to stretch the cut. Continue running the blade along the notch until the piece separates.

Contrary to what people think, you don't need to bear down hard - just use the weight of your hand and whatever pressure is required to keep the blade running along the straight edge. Anything more just wears the blades (and your hand) out faster with little to no real advantage.

I've used both a utility knife and a carpet knife. No noticeable speed advantage - comes down to whichever you prefer. The carpet knife has a more ergonomic handle, so there's that.

Have good music playing. It's pretty tedious work.

Sounds like a good plan. Thanks for the detailed response!
