99-07 Ford SD Brite Tread Tailgate Protector

The 99-07 Ford SD Brite Tread Tailgate Protector by DEE ZEE is a vital accessory for owners of Super Duty trucks who frequently load and unload cargo. This protector is designed to combat inevitable tailgate wear caused by boot scuffs, tie-down abrasion, and load contact, which can quickly degrade the paint and protective coating of your truck.

Constructed from durable molded thermoplastic material, the protector features a textured Brite Tread surface finish that grips boots and cargo, preventing slipping while evenly distributing load pressure across the tailgate. This design is engineered to resist UV degradation, ensuring it maintains traction even in wet conditions, making it ideal for job sites and variable weather.

This tailgate protector fits 1999–2007 Ford Super Duty trucks (F-250, F-350, and F-450 models), providing essential protection that helps preserve resale value and maintain appearance over years of heavy use. Its low-profile design adds minimal weight while spanning 69 inches across the tailgate width, covering the highest-wear impact zone.
