Skid plates...yay or nay...
I was getting ready to order two set of swing arm, a-arm, and chassis skid plates for my quads and thought I would check with you guys before I hit the 'confirm order' order button.
The most trail riding I'll be doing will be at Gorman. In the winter it will be all sand.
Yay or nay?
I was already recommended the DG brand but want to be sure these are really for me? Are they removed when you do dune riding?

For my riding it was a must. Too bad I had to bend an a-arm to figure it out. Now I don't have to worry about anything. I can drive over trees, on the ground or standing, and large rocks without having to worry about anything tearing up. Plus I'm sure it helps to keep a strain off the welds on the frame.

Look at some pictures of desert racers, like from the big Baja endurance races. If any machines needed a-arm skids, these should be the ones. Not a single a-arm skid anywhere in sight...........
One very important part of the chassis skid is not just protecting the engine, but the FRAME RAILS! A bent frame is going to be a major problem. Get a skid that wraps around the rails a little, for some extra protection.
