|  A-arm skid plates.
What do all you guys use for a-arm skid plates? or do you? Personally I think lexan would be good. Seems it would slide good and not use up much ground clearance.

on my t-maxx i used a piece of thin guttering material. just cut to length wrap around the front and back and attach with some small screws.I used this on my race truck and it been on all season and holding up good. it might not hold up so good in rocks but it is super easy to work with.

Few guys run lexan panels for skids on their Maxx Kits here in Oregon.... just get some flat pieces and lightly heat them up and bend them into place. Use a piece of double sided stick tape to hold them in place. I can't seem to find any good shots of the skids but here are what I did find when seraching quickly. Vance has a lexan skid on his chassis, hard to see but it's there:   Lexan skids on front and rear arms:  | |

Thank you Toyofast. Thats what I was thinking. Im trying to get all the little details taken care of that I can come up with before you get my chassis ready. Looks like I will be digging through the body pile for some doner parts.  |
