I have purchased a 2018 Pioneer and was wondering what is the best combo for skids. Trail Armour, Richochet,or just keep factory center with some rock sliders. I have never put any on anything, but read where the pioneer is not that protected. Looking for what majority is doing. Thanks in advance

DO NOT keep the factory center... you will regret it! When you hear people referring to Factory UTV they are not referring to the stock center plate. Buy a 1/2” set of full belly uhmw skids... either trail armor or factory utv will be good options. D

OH all most forgot the factor skid plate let a small rock crack the oil Pan, no fun in that. Also the trail armer coms out past the rocker pipe and save them.

I picked up a full set of 1/2 inch umhw Modquad / Open Trail skid plates which cover the outer skid tubes for $531.00 delivered, no drilling just bolt on. I found them on ebay.

Still happy with my aluminum frim S&S fab out of Ky. Close to 3yrs old and flat as a board. Full skids and arm guards for around 750 bucks too. Just another option
