Abstract: A protector assembly for attachment to a vehicle such as a truck. The assembly includes a base member which is permanently attached to the truck and a cushion member which is retained adjacent the base member by retainer. The cushion member is slidable relative to the base member between the retention position and a release position whereby in the release position the cushion member is no longer retained by the retainer. The cushion member includes a mounting portion formed from a relatively hard material which engages the retainer, and a working portion formed from a relatively soft resilient elastomeric material.

Abstract: A protector assembly (1) for attachment to a vehicle such as a truck. The assembly includes a base member (3) which is permanently attached to the truck and a cushion member (4) which is retained adjacent the base member (3) by retention means (8). The cushion member (4) is slidable relative to the base member between the retention position and a release position whereby in the release position the cushion member is no longer retained by the retention means. The cushion member includes a mounting portion (10) formed from a relatively hard material which engages the retention means, and a working portion (11) formed from a relatively soft resilient elastomeric material.
