Underbody?
Depends how you plan to ride. I wont go without Full underbody armor. Arms, Belly And swing. plus a good bumper. All of my skids have recieved a thrashing and everytime i look at them i know why i have them. their a wear part. I get about 1 year outta a swingarm skid before they are ripped to shreds.. Sure i could make an effort to slow down and avoid some of the rocks. But i really dont care too slow down.

With razr2's on the back i run 2lbs of air and razr2's on front with 4lbs of air. with stock tires i ran about 10lbs in the front and 5 in the rear otherwise they were too rolly.
Tire pressure will always be a personal preference. you have to play with it to find how you like your quad to react.
As far as trails. they all have rocks out here. just most people try and avoid or slow down for them. I dont see the point. I like to break stuff. makes me feel like i did sompin [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] went down a Boulder crawling jeep trail with another forum member. TractorPacker. it was get all the momentum you could Slam the boulder and slide over it. Rocks bigger than jeeps. that ride was hard on the skids. most trails just have your basic 6 - 8" rock out in the middle.

If you don't have enough pressure you risk pinching the tire between the rim and a rock. This happened to me a couple of months ago when I forgot to add some air when I knew it was a little low. Of course it depends on how you ride too. If you ride fast, you want at least the recommended pressure if not a little more. On the skids, you ABSOLUTELY need at least a swingarm guard. The Armadillo is probably the best bang for the buck at $80 and 1/4 inch thick with good coverage. Even if you don't ride "Rocky" trails, all it takes is a root, stump, branch or who knows what. If you are going fast and anything hits your rotor or sprocket, something will get damaged. It doesn't have to be very "often", just has to be once and you will wish you had some armor. I ride trails occasionally but even at the dunes there can be objects or rocks that will jump out and grab your underside.
