UHMW Skid Plate by Tusk (Rocky Mountain ATV)

Wacker · Nov 24, 2009

After the 10% discount code and FREE shipping from RMATV.com... and installing it.

I'm very happy with the looks and quality of it...
Full Front to Rear and Side to Side coverage. Full 3/8" thick, all edges are beveled and hardware is recessed.

For a total of $270 shipped to the front door.

Pictures of install HERE

Also.... just a quick note about the eBay seller listing the same item... I sent them one message with the same two questions as everyone else about the side to side width and the front to rear coverage, b/c the picture doesn't show it well... NO REPLY... for what it's worth... One phone call to RMATV... Helpful girl found the dimensions for me, gave me the coupon code and I ordered it.

Looks to be very good quality, is it very heavy?

Stumpduster · Nov 26, 2009

Wacker, one more question ...... where the two pieces of the main skid meet, does the front overlap the rear piece?
Doug I doubt it's any heavier than most 3/8" UHMW skids, don't recall the actual lbs. but it's a little lighter than aluminum, and a whole lot slicker!

Wacker · Nov 29, 2009

Sorry.... Left to go riding on Wednesday and just got back...

The front and rear pieces over lap in the middle with a "lap joint" I think it's called.
I'd say the weight is between 30-35 pounds total. It seems very durable, if it cracks I'll be very surprised... :shock:

Greg, do you have rock sliders or nerf bars, if you do are you still able to use them? Might get this for Christmas instead of some doors

I had the Rock Sliders but had to take off b/c the skid covers from side to side very nicely... it uses the four holes on both sides of the rocker panels/door jambs... I'm not really worried about the bars now b/c they just got hung up on everything to easy. But I looked again and think with a little bit of trimming you could leave them on pretty easily too.

Thanks for the information, I'm thinking this will be my Christmas present, well maybe 2 set. The "S" doesn't have any side protection currently, and the 08' has rock sliders.

The more I look at this set-up the more I like it - And as Mike stated, it very well could end up being one of those " from me to me " Christmas presents.

This just makes it sweeter, I received a letter from Paypal saying if I try their new service called BillLMeLater they will take $100 off my first purchase.

Wacker · Dec 1, 2009

was it a letter in the mail... or an email...?

that's interesting...

Pops · Dec 1, 2009

I got it in the mail, they said they couldn't reach me through email.

Pops · Dec 2, 2009

I just tried to buy a couple skid pans, found out the code is $100.00 store credit and BillMeLater wouldn't work. Going to call paypal tomorrow and find out why it didn't work.

Seasonedsole · Dec 2, 2009

I should be receiving mine today, maybe I should call and they may give me an in house credit for the new code.
