I want to fix a step stool that we use to enter the trailer with. It is a expensive model and to throw it away because of this would be ridiculous. All four rubber feet have split and come off the metal legs. Doe anyone have an idea to replace them and where you go for this?

Pharmacy or medical supply store. Rubber tips in lots of sizes.

You might also think about putting a washer or a quarter in the bottom before you put the new ones on -- helps stop the sharp edges from cutting thru -- also tape the feet on to keep out the stones.

Lowe's or Home Depot should have replacements.

I just bought a set for mine. 1-1/8", I believe, and re-used the washers from the originals.

Got 'em at Home Depot in the hdwe department right next to the casters.

I think I can use end caps for iron fences then find the rubber feet
