I bet there's not a gen1 out there with the prophylactic still on it... Mine has them intact. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> They were missing when I bought the truck, but still available at the time from the dealer. A piece of vinyl or rubber tubing will do just as well. Frank

Frank I was thinking chair leg ends. You know those little rubber or urethane caps that they put on to stop them marking or digging in to the floor. Figured I could pick some up at the local hardware store pretty cheap, they would need to be pretty hard though so they dont just rip apart first contact.

I thought about putting on a rubber tube large enough to go over the whole post, and long enough to protrude 1/4" past the end, and fill that stub end with grease.
And Frank, only you would bother... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I can't afford prophylactics, so I just use amateurs.
