My skids are aluminum and while bashed to hell they have done the job. The sliders have some scuffs but nothing that yours would not hold up to - they should be used for skidding across things not violently dropping a 3 ton truck (with the amount of crap most of us have) on.
Quoting myself because I did end up replacing by BudBuilts with Greenlane and got a chance to use them out in Utah recently, they held up just fine to the couple impact events that occurred, as expected. Also replace the RCI skids with a new set (both were/are Alu.) - like the new design from RCI vs the original , no complaints having to replace them after the abuse they sustained.
