tbcustomz Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I just received a 1/4" prm z-skid swingarm skid plate. It is very heavy duty and the qaultiy looks great, but it wont mount up. The width of the tabs on the plate is too narrow to mount on the outside of the swingarm mounts and not narrow enough to go on the inside. Both my lsr and stock arm are about 5 1/4" from the outside edge of the swingarm mounts. Does anyone have a swingarm to measure to compare?

I havent taken enough time to mount it yet but just putting it up to the swingarm the tabs wont go inside or outside either. It looks like it has to be mounted with one side on the inside and one side on the outside. Not sure which way, but thats what I got. Im gonna play with it more tomorrow. I have a stock swingarm too.

tbcustomz Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Seems odd to me but I figured that out last night also. I looked at their tech section and it has instructions for a blaster and it mounts to the brake side of the swingarm mounts. Mine will mount up fine to my stock arm that way, but my lsr swingarm is going to require some washers. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Jackson Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 i got my swingarm off sittin in the laundry room so i measured the mounts, its about 5 3/8 from outside to outside of mount and abotu 4 3/4 from inside to inside, if that helps at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbcustomz Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 thanks guys. I am going to sell it on here or send it back. I cant mount it to my lsr arm without a stack of washers on one side. The lsr tabs are just too narrow for the way it mounts. So if anyone is looking to buy one I paid $120 plus shipping. I will sell it for $100 plus shipping. It is really well made, but wont work for my setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
