Trail Armor Skid Plates For 2016-25 Can-Am Defender HD8 / HD9 / HD10
Give your Can-Am Defender the undercarriage protection it deserves. Trail Armor's full skid plate set is precision-engineered for the 2016–2024 Can-Am Defender lineup and crafted from a proprietary ½" ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polymer — a material that outperforms traditional metal and aluminum in every category that matters on the trail.
Why Polymer Outperforms Metal
Trail Armor's UHMW polymer skids are lighter than steel or aluminum alternatives and carry zero impact memory — meaning they flex and absorb hits without denting, galling, or corroding. Where metal skids get beaten up and stay beaten up, Trail Armor skids keep performing ride after ride.
Formed Leading Edges — An Industry First
Trail Armor pioneered the use of formed leading edges on UTV skid plates. These engineered edges protect vulnerable frame rails and wheel wells from blunt impacts while creating a smooth transition point for sliding over rocks and obstacles — eliminating the hang-up and drag that flat metal skids are notorious for.
Full-Coverage Protection
These skid plates cover the entire length and width of your vehicle's undercarriage, including the front and rear differential. Coverage also extends below the factory rocker panels, protecting one of the most impact-prone areas on the Defender.
Designed for Easy Maintenance
- Access holes are built in for service points and oil drains — no removal required for routine maintenance
- Strategically placed drain holes let you clean the skids without pulling them off
- Modular panel design allows individual sections to be removed independently, so you never have to uninstall the full kit to access a specific area
Hardware & Installation
Every kit includes corrosion-resistant mounting hardware and complete, photo-documented installation instructions. Mounting holes are recessed to protect fastener heads from impact and keep bolt heads flush with the skid surface. Installation videos are also available on the Trail Armor YouTube channel.
