- Ride without worry! Whether you ride hard or not your rig needs to be protected so your not left stranded. Insurance companies are totaling the KRX for simple rear frame or skid plate damage cause by rocks or stumps. That SUCKS, but its not all!
The KRX is plagued with the same cheap thin metal transmission skid plate as all the other brand UTV's on the market. However the KRX has been missing aftermarket support until now.
Kawasaki is aware of the transmission skid issues and is warranting broken transmission housings all over the world.
Think a 3/8" or 1/2" UHMW Delrin skid is going to help? Think again. UHMW moves and bends. Its great for protecting the underside of your rig, but it bends and flexes. The KRX unfortunately also has transmission and motor mount bushing movement which compounds the problem leaving less than 1/4" of clearance from under your transmission to the skid plate. Transmissions are still being destroyed.
The factory skid IS NOT ADEQUATE to protect the frame or transmission from even the mildest of hits. Protect your investment and keep your rig out of the shop or even worse the salvage yard.
Ride hard without worry! Our skid is made from 1/8" steel and is a simple 15 minute bolt on!

Hey guys, thanks for the video I purchased your skid plate and installed it in about 30 minutes and I am handicapped! So the average guy shouldn’t have any trouble at all thanks again.
Just installed mine. Great product. Never payed any attention to the factory skid or how close it was to the trans case until I watched this video. After doing to install I realized just how bad this is needed.
Great product. Definitely an easier install with someone to start the nuts, but doable if only one person. I'm always interested in what Full Access will offer next. Thanks Jake...and family
Just installed the skid plate. Easy and quick install. Much needed on the mountain trails in Montana. Thanks for the great products Jake
Thank you sir!
Just received mine today, can't wait to get it installed and ready for this weekend 🙌
Received this skid plate today and immediately started the install. Was easy.
But..... If already have a rear 2 inch receiver installed will have to use the two long bolts in front. The long bolts hit the bottom install bolts and nut from the receiver hitch being mounted. Very happy with quality of skid plate. And a plus productis shipped with a koozie and stickers.
Thanks guys. Definitely a needed accessory
You’re welcome Joe. Thanks for the order
I would call it a Bash Guard and not a skid plate. Really to different things. I was very glad I had mine in Baja.
Nice video, just placed my order. Picking up my new KRX 1000 soon, so wanted to get this on before any damage.
Thanks for the order
🇺🇸 Installing mine this evening 🇺🇸
Great product!
I definitely need one of these for my krx. Where do I go to order this? Not seeing a link
I was able to place Factory Utv skid over the top of this, adding to protection. Should be bulletproof.
Thanks for the reply. Yeah it seems every brand out there is kind of using the same holes and these work out awesome.
I have thus skid plate but wich other plastic skid body do you recommend for the rest of the undercarriage?
Thanks for your help.
Also on the Special edition KRX1000 with the HI-Phonics sound system where are the speaker wires for the rear?
I want to add speaker pods because mine didn't come with the rear speakers from the dealer because it has an aftermarket cage so i guess they were not mounted because the bolts were used to mount the cage.
We use and sell the super ATV skid. They fit great. I’m not sure on the rear speakers, however, those bolt into the factory cage mount, so I’m not sure they would work with an aftermarket cage.
So this is all that is needed
Plus a plastic skid plate
Is the plastic skid plate in the kit
@@garylawson5230 no. Our skid goes below the frame and above a plastic skid. We recommend the superatv one on our site.
I put the kawasaki OEM skid plate on my KRX before I even drove it. I wanted to protect the underbelly from the get go.
Fully agree. It’s a must do. We are at Utv Takeover in Sand Hollow and we’re seeing a ton of smashed lower pans.
Good question markedmotorsports.com/kawasaki-krx-1000-bolt-on-transmission-skid-plate-p-504.html?zenid=d59f9c7545e974840fde3130297eec8c
I installed mine a few months back. Now im adding super Atv skid plate. How much longer bolts do I need to source.
Depends on your creativity. Some people say they needed nothing, some people need two bolts for the back or they drill the washers. Up to you but I don’t have exact measurement
On my 2023 the 2 rear holes you drill out have nuts to thread a bolt into it do I still drill that and do away with that nut behind factory plate
It is the same on all years. Drill through the nuts. What’s left of the nut will be extremely thin and usually can be crushed by tightening the new bolts. Some people choose to remove what’s left of the nut but it is not required.
@FULL ACCESS UTV can I use those threaded nuts and mount transmission plate and drill the other 4 in the fron
@FULL ACCESS UTV also was wondering when I do skid plates on the rear where the transmission plate is do the bolts need to be removed or do you self tap screw to transmission plate thanks Mike
@@michaellindsay4762 All manufactures of the skid plates are the same. They use the last two holes. It is best to not reuse those bolts because they are small. Bigger is better and we have never done it that way.
@@fullaccessutvso to confirm, I'll need 2 longer bolts for the rear when I add my Trail Armor skids? Sorry, I have the Full Access skid already but the TA skids haven't shown up yet.
Whats the trick to drill through these holes mine aren't going through lol
It’s not that tough. But you do need a sharp metal drill bit. Nothing dull. You can also start with a smaller bit to step up. Another trick I have done in the past is you can use a floor jack underneath your drill. Have someone give it light pressure while you’re drilling. if you’re drilling and not going anywhere, you’re making it worse by hardening the metal.
@FULL ACCESS UTV I'll go purchase a second bit tomorrow. I had purchased a new one 3/8 inches but it was definitely the cheapest one they had so maybe I'll source a more expensive one and try again. You seemed to buzz through it.
Where do I get price and availability of your products? The link below shows " not a valid certificate"
Weird. Fullaccessutv.com
@@fullaccessutv sorry, it was my “too old to update” Apple Computer.
@@jerrychafton lol. I think I’m actually going to drop apple soon and get a android phone. Too many games.
@@fullaccessutv agree, but hard to do with everything linked together. Hey, I’m looking forward to purchasing your products as soon as I can get the 2022 ES model. Do you have any inside info on the release date of that unit? Thanks
@@jerrychafton My understanding is the ES version will not be manufactured in 2022?
Do you also make one for the front as well?
No need for one in the front. Above the front is the cross bracing channels made by Kawasaki to mount the front differential. It really reinforces that area.
@@fullaccessutv thank you for the info
@@joesageser9707 We run the super atv front frame brace on our rigs. Stiffens up all the mounts and acts as a great skid plate.
