Default YFZ-Skid Plate Modification

has anyone drilled out the thread holes in the swingarm. to allow a bigger diameter bolt. i keep snapping those 10mm bolts. like 1 per ride and i'm using an AC skid. granted the terrain i ride is rough...rocks everywhere...these things should be holding up better.

there looks like theres enough room for a wider bolt and a longer bolt to add a locknut on the other side.

has anyone done this yet? or does anyone have a better idea?

same problem with the GYT-R skids and wondering about the potential mod also.. I thought I read somewhere that someone had drilled them out and purchased larger diamter bolts but the should of the stock bolt is tough to duplicate..
