P1000 Which skid plate protects outside tubes between F & R wheels?

[Thudreem]

Hi Guys,

New to the P1000-5 and looking for 1/2 UHMW skid plate that protects the undercarriage as well as the outside tubes that are under the doors.

Any other company besides Trail Armor offer this?

Thanks!

I have the trail armor and they're great. I think @nbomar has a different set that does as well.

I believe factoryutv has a skid that covers everything you mention.
I was going to go factoryutv, but by the time it was shipped to me, it was $200 more than the trailarmor.
The forum has a code for trail armor that sweetens the deal a little bit more.

Trail Armor w/ A-arm guards is $1060 shipped
FactoryUtv is $876 shipped

Both companies quoted 10% off forum discount.

Does that sound about right? Any other options available that protect the outside tubes?

Thanks guys!

Personally I would skip the arm guards.
Lots of take-off arms available for a small investment if you want to keep spares in stock.

Factory for the money for sure. Welcome to the forum.

What is the trail armor price for just the skid? I thought I only paid around $750 shipped.

Factory is 3 pieces. TA is 5 pieces. I've heard of several people ripping 1 of the pieces off the TA. The outside tubes will still smash with the HD skids on if your rough in the rocks. If your tubes are still round, you might be able to slide another pipe in there for more support.

If I was buying one, Factory UTV is the one I'd get

I have the factory utv skid plate and after I mounted the skid plate I cut a piece of angle iron and slide on side up against the bottom of the skid plate and the other side covered the side rails and that’s where I put my bolts in to hold it on

how did you get the forum discount with the Factory UTV? Do you have to call to order?

 

[sugarray]

I live my Trail Armor. I’ve hit some rocks pretty good and nary a scratch. My step tubes are looking good. TA matched the UTV price for me. I’d call them. You won’t go wrong either way.

Are those aluminum??

 

[nbomar]

Factory utv is what I have. I like that the whole underbelly is essentially 1 piece. The other two pieces are the small section between the a arms from and rear.
