Dirt Performance Polaris atv Rzr 4 Skid Plates Rzr4 Plate 2 First, instead of placing tons of drain holes throughout the entire skid plate system, they've placed 4 holes right in front of the frame crossmembers. After extensive testing in the mud and washing it off, this is where all the mud accumulates so this is where the drain holes work best. When you look at competing skid plate systems, you'll notice holes all over the place which ends up scooping up even more mud instead of letting it drain out.
Secondly, have you ever tried removing your stock skid plate and found the stock washers have folded over the heads of the bolts making it challenging to remove the skid plate? Dirt Performance has solved this problem with recessed bolt holes that require no washers.
Third, there are a few places on the RZR 4 frame that if caught on a rock would stop the vehicle abruptly and possibly bend the frame. DPI has solved these problems by created a smooth surface from front to back and side to side.
