Thinking that you need skid plates on your Ozark?

No pics here because an Ozark will rarely need after market skid plates.

After riding our Ozarks hard over big rocks, stumps, and logs for three years without damaging anything, I am convinced that the stock metal Ozark skid plates are a lot better than the stock plastic skid plates found on other quads. Our Ozark skids have plenty of dents and scrapes but they've held. The stock rear skid is plastic but I'm not too worried about that because the rear diff is pretty tough by itself anyway.

I think it's pretty funny that a "cheap" starter quad like an Ozark has better stock skids than many more expensive utes.

We found the winch to be a much more useful aftermarket add-on than the skid plates but maybe if you are taking 10 foot jumps onto a pile of rocks then the after market skids would be a good idea.

Hey 2006OZARKer can you post some pics of your skid plates when you get them all put on.

I just bought a 2008 blk Ozark and I also plan on getting all the skid plates. I got the rear diff skid off Ebay brand new for $9.99 I thought that was a good deal.
