Post Stump guards for prop?
Is it possible to put something around the prop on a LT to keep it from hitting stumps? i dont mind the frame hitting stumps but whe the prop hits them it nearly breaks my bonny wrist! i cud easily fab up somethin but afraid it will effect performance! anybody have any ideas? or is this just something i gota deal with?

yep u could make a stump protector, but anything u make will hangup in the grass, so it might not be worth it.

Just wait till it kicks you in the leg :x ...Then after the initial shock wears off, you wake up the next day wondering why your leg hurts so bad... :(


Like DA said... Its just something else to hang weeds on... But it will work for said purpose....
