I have a PRP framed yz426 and they do not make skids for PRP products.

Take a look under your frame and your swingarm. Their is nothing to bolt up any type of skids...no mounting brackets, no mounting holes etc...your best bet, is to make your own.

The guy I got my hybrid actually made a frame skid out of a huge piece of aluminum....I have not put it on yet. Mines also a 250R style frame.

To add to this, I just stood the quad up and traced the bottom of the frame and then cut out a full skid plate for it and made some brackets to go ontop of the frame rails then the two plates are bolted together. you can call Dave Porter at 315-723-3475 or 315-942-5291. He will probably send you over to Tigor Racing who makes all the prp components for Dave, his name is Tony and his number is 315-337-6399. He told me he would make me one but it would be way cheaper for me to do it myself so thats what I did.

Just to add to the original question... your frame really shouldn't have any holes in it anyways for a skid plate. Most skids mount with brackets of some sort and u-bolts around the frame. I'd call Dave at PRP and ask him what the frame is closely related to (like a 250R or 400EX or something) and then just order a skid for that frame style and do some minor tweaking to make it fit. Most home-made skids I've seen dont hold up well. It's hard to get the bolts/nuts to recess into the skid so they dont get all bashed up and you lose your skid.
