04 Kodiak 400 4x4 Skid plate question
I have only the plastic, factory skid plate/guard on my quad. Then, this past summer I climbed up on my 5x8 trailer with a 4" drop hitch on my Expedition (I usually have a straight hitch/ball). Now with the rear end higher than normal, as I climbed up into the trailer, I hit, pinched, and destroyed the rubber, accordian style boot and spring clamp that protects the shaft going to the rear end. I luckily discovered I had a bad rear oil seal and replaced it. I don't ride very often, but am pretty rough on my quad with riding in the woods and creeks. All the logs and rocks I encounter, are there heavier skid plates that will reach back far enough to protect that boot and not interfere with the rear end motion? I do a bit of welding and have thought about designing something to protect my ride from all the crap I make it do.

I consider myself an aggressive, but safe quad rider. I only do what my ***** let me...
