the last pic i posted, the linkage is on wrong. i was going to elaborate but i got booted offline.


anyway, the I beam looking part runs to the frame. I meant to explain above but i got side tracked, sorry for causing you any confusion.

Does anyone know if a pro armor skid plate clears a gt thunder xc link for a 400ex?

coryatver, i am gonna say no..i had to cut a lot out of my armadillo swingarm skid to get it on after getting the gt thunder xc link, and i was at instigator racing today and he has a bunch of prm skids that are pre-cut for that linkage on the 450r...
