you have to order them for the longer arm /if you don't the end of stock length skid will get into the brake rotor and sprocket

I have a RPM +1 1/4" Swinger with an AC Skid...bolted up fine. I heard some brands need a special skid, like Laegers maybe?

thats kinda wierd, cuz the skid isnt made to protect the swinger, its made to protect the rotor and sprocket. Why wouldnt they just put the mounts where it will protect what its supposed too.

Laeger needs a diffrent skid. But most other brands can use the stock style, I know rpm and Houser can use stock.
