There's an 18 year old thread with no resolution. Is there a skid plate for a JD3720?

My LS dealer made a skid plate for my LS XR4155 , it helps but it ain’t nothing to brag about. Basically just a flat piece of steel bolted to the loader frame.
He has had to do some pretty expensive repairs because of customers driving over stuff they shouldn’t be driving over.

That's a nice setup Ray!
The price really doesn't surprise me and for someone who's regularly doing serious mowing/clearing type of woods work, it's probably an easy decision. Now for the occasional guy, that would be a bigger decision.
There are a lot of stories here (over the years) of guys puncturing something that keep the "essential liquids" 🤣 inside the tractor. Some are fortunate enough to "catch" it before the transmission or engine oil bleed out escalating the situation by thousands of dollars or worse.
