Default Protecting my chain tensioner?

My chain tensioner looks way to vulnerable hanging down from the rear arm. Has anyone had problems catching it on objects?

Does the rear guard cover the tensioner, do I need a certain model of rear guard so the tensioner doesn't hit it?

Thanks for any info.

I took pics of every step and will be making a nice tutorial on installing a chain tensioner. I plan on making tutorials for several other mods as well as a full 3d model of my scrambler(great detail).

I doubt a rear skid will fit with the chain tensionor. To be completely honest, I have never had a problem with my tensionor getting caught or hitting anything. And there have been a few people that have ended up taking their rear skid off due to getting hung up easier because of the lost ground clearence. I wouldnt worry about it (I don't) the added security of the tensionor is worth it
