Anybody have recommendations? So far I have found a plastic set from Iron Baltic or Aluminum from Rival. Iron baltic looks good but it is HDPE instead of UHMW. Is that a deal breaker? (BTW I am looking in the US)

HDPE is still way better then the OEs...but for my money..I will always go with the Aluminum.

If you don't do aluminum make sure you at least put a plate under the middle it's wide open under there an can do a lot of damage if you come down on a big rock or stump

I was using my U1K to haul some trees I fell for fire wood at camp, there's a lot of stumps from the previous owner of the land all over the shot and I too am looking to replace my now damaged skid plate.

I'm looking for an Aluminum one, however I'd really like to find one that's made in the US, so far I've not found much.
