Plastic trailer skids needed

I'll do my best to describe this! My trailer bunks are shaped like a capital T and over the horozontal top slides a plastic skid. I'm in need of a replacement - any clues as to where to source would be much appreciated. Thanks

Trailertek a short way down the A34 from you would be my first port of call:
https://www.trailertek.com/

They appear to be open as usual.

On a side note related, I’ve got these and feel they are a bit aggressive for the boat to be sat on/ dragged up. Anyone covered there’s in something?

Hi, I had similar plastic on mine but when I removed the blue bit I found the metal box section had corroded and so I replaced the whole lot with the things called Snubbers from here Boat Trailer Rollers-Boat Trailer Parts-Boat Trailer Roller Bunks Delivery took a while, but when they arrived they look okay and are now fitted. I've yet to launch and recover so can't say how well they slide. Scroll down the list on the page. There are also a number of other options for bunks etc.
