Getting google books results for anytime the words "skid mount" are used in any context does not demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. These are mostly brief mentions of the fact that a skid mount was used, except for the first one, which appears to be about something else entirely, and the second one, which is a paper about a specific skid-mounted device, fine for verifiability, but not notability.

#1 is a paper on the structural analysis of a skid mount, used to transport hydrogen tubes, #2 is a technical report on the safety of a skid mounted road sign - an application not currently in the article. #3, #4, & #6 each have several paragraphs describing the general principle of a skid mount which could be used as references for the first paragraph of this article.

"Weak keep': This is not my area of expertise and a lot of what I found on Google Books, etc., was either paywalled or about the skid and not the mount, but the sources cited above seem to at least provide coverage beyond a dictionary definition.

Keep, Notable commonly used concept - passes WP:GNG, I did a quick search on Google Scholar and three hundred or so articles discuss it (and its more an industry concept rather than scientific/arts/legal, so that isn't the best place to look), but from the context, its a common enough concept. Searching Proquest journals, gives 299 hits on the phrase, with a lot of mentions of the concept being used in industry/ trade journals. Deathlibrarian (talk) 03:26, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
