Jgspahn Posted August 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 no, extra weight. Thats what I was thinking.. figured it might keep a little mud off of all the parts under the seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monster Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 I ride sand and run the frame skid! I like how it lets me slide over the sharp dunes instead of dragging on my frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonecheenin Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I run full thick aluminum skids on the A-arms, belly, and shock linkage/rear axle housing & sprockets/disc - AC racing I believe though I remember hunting hard for the rear skid to make sure I got a full coverage one. I ride mostly all trails, boney hill climbs, woods, etc.... And out here in PA we get ALOT of rocks in the trail so I utilize those skids quite frequently!

special06shee Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I run a full belly, swing arm, and just made a set of aarms skids. As mentioned above, its rocky here in pa. I sank way too much money in my turd to not try and do my best in protecting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jgspahn Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Well I have a rear skid plate for like the carrier, but thats all I run. I liked the idea of a belly one. I ride some gravel roads, but i dont think those pebbles are gonna mess anything up on the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
