i don't want to use the stock skid plate, just the guide. i am a little concerned about trail debris getting kicked up and derailing the chain. i ride lots of deep mud, well for a sport quad, with rocks, sticks and lot of other crap that can easily get kicked up and derail the chain. i bought the skid cause i want total protection, but now that i have been searching around, not many have a chain guide. i am still gonna see about adapting the stock guide to this skid tomorrow, but if it seems like it is goin to be a huge pita, then i will prob just see how it works. i just spent all this money and really dont want a popped chain cracking my case. that i wont be able to afford to fix till next income tax time.
oh and i did buy a tusk case saver also too help prevent the cracked case before i knew about the chain guide.
