I would definetly get the swing arm and full body skid. You don't really need the a-arms skids. Get the PRM skids.

You can't go wrong with either PRM or Pro Armor skids... I personally went with Pro Armor skids, and I couldn't be happier. The craftsmanship on them is amazing and they are super tough! I had a hard time choosing between the two, but I knew either set would be good.

The one thing that is bad about the Pro Armor chassis skid is that there is no drain hole for the crankcase oil drain. One of my good friends is a machinist, so we just milled one in mine.

Also, I personally don't think a-arm skid plates are worth the money, but definitely upgrade your chassis and swingarm skids.

I just bought the full chassis PRM skid plate. It's only .125 alum. My buddy has DG Baja's. They are a lot thicker than my PRM. But the guys at the shop tell me it will last ?!?

I would recommend the PRM skids. I have had them on my quad for about 4 years now and I have had nothing but good luck with them. Plus they look good when you shine them up. If you have the chance, get all of the skids...... they will save you in the long run. Hope this helps.

I am also looking into getting skids. Think its worth going with what ever is cheaper between the Pro Armor and PRM ? I was thinking about getting the A-arm skids, but I am not sure if I will get them (I will buy the swing arm skid instead, and a arm skids later). What about the Pro Armor swingarm skids, are they good?

how thick are the PRM swing arm skids? are they .250 like the pro-armor?

I have both the Pro Armor chassis and swingarm skidplates... I love mine. The design of them is great, excellent craftsmanship, and they are super tough.

I like the PRM they are tough and the welds are great. The company is small and have great customer service
