Joeymt33 How big holes did you put in them I just ordered some. Do they come with all the hardware?

I was impressed with them. They do come with hardware. Hard to beat if you can buy a set for $531.00 delivered. I've seen these for up to $750

I don’t remember the hole size but it’s probably 1.5”. After owning our first pioneer, I new where the mud and water collected when washing it so these holes were strategically placed. I didn’t want too many but it needed some bad. You can be carrying 100lbs of mud with out them.

I just ordered a set....I will put extra holes in them also. Hope they will fit my 1000-5 they said they were the same.

Not if you drive an LE!

The anodized Ricochet set is easy on the eyes. These are orange, which I think looks nice with the camo body.

I had to trim a few inches off the front of the forward-most plate to make it compatible with my plow mount; oh well, nothing like digging the cut-off wheel into a set of custom skids.

I had an identical set on a 2015 Foreman. After running rocky roads in Colorado for three years, they had a little more character, some scratches and dings, but held up without fail.

Those ricochet are nice the orange looks real good.

Recieved my skids today going to install this weekend.

What's the issue with the limited edition. You knock it all the time.

Guys buy them and they don’t ride anything but gravel roads and blacktop anymore. Hence.. LE= Lesser Excursions.

Trail Armour since 2016, and I live in stick, branch, and rock infested terrain. Nuff said.

I own an LE and run through mud every chance I get. I dont understand why someone would pay extra for something they wouldn’t use. Don’t have hills or rocky terrain in southeast Georgia. So I don’t know how well it performs in those conditions. Was curious on your thoughts about limited edition ( lesser excursions)
