Makes it alot easier for the kids to move the rear . Sets about 3.5" above the exhaust can be made to set lower if needed.

I replaced our grab bars a couple months ago with some custom ones. Zach likes the lower reach a whole lot better. We've also been running UHMW skids now and like them. Had to buy the Yamaha skid bolts to get one with a nice wide but low profile button head. What bolts did you end up using? I couldn't find a place that sold the big button heads. We also use the skid plate foam..... makes a big difference in the amount of mud that piles up. Even with the foam we still get a bunch of mud. We raced a muddy national race in Ohio a few weeks ago and didn't get around to cleaning the quad until all the mud dried. So we chipped it off and put it in a bucket which might have been 2/3 of all the mud at most. we weighed the bucket and had almost 10 lbs of Ohio mud. I bet they would want me to pay property taxes on that if they knew we had that much !! LOL

I use the Yamaha bolts for mine right now we don't have it on there. WE are running local MX till the Mid east starts back. But the Yamaha bolts work the best from what I have found.

I bought a uhmw sheet and made them. Just got a little thicker sheet and going to make a couple more. Went thicker to get the screws fully recess. It should skip over rocks and logs smoothly without loppin off the screw heads.

I use McMaster Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com/#elevator-bolts/=daghnt) for alot of the weird fasteners and brackets. Here are three different versions of elevator bolts that work for skid plates.
