I've got Armadillo skids (A-arm, chassis, swingarm) and had no problems. The swingarm plate is tricky to install if you dont know how to work on your rear axle though. Good price for a combo set off of EBAY. The guys name was trailtracksand if I remember correctly. Contact him for the full package price. He always has em for sale

another one for proarmor! im a SERIOUSLY cheap person when it comes to buying stuff.. (dont know how i ended up with the worlds largest money pit ----> DS) but anyway i opted for the .250 pro armor and am GLAD i did... the ds sits so low, that even with 22 inch tires im always hitting rocks (still hasnt put a bend in that sucker)

I'm having trouble finding a durable skid plates that is easy to install for an '04 DS 650 Baja X..

Do these companies listed have them for the newer model swingarm?

Does anyone know if PRM is making skid plates for the 04 DS650?

im not 100% but i thought all the skidplates still fit the newer models (new being 04/05) i have an 03 and one thing i was hoping to do if i bought an 05 was to keep my 100 dollar skidplate...lol

for me, it was worth the extra 30 bucks or so to go with pro armor, the last one i purchased i was going to just about take half the rear end apart... pro armor just bolts right up.
