I like them because they clamp the plate to the frame for a long distance and help strengthen the frame rails too. The studs just mount at narrow places on the frame . The skid plate has over 1/4" spacing, more even with the 43 sprocket , Thanks for the alternative .Looks nice!
How wide are those spacers? And what was the deciding factor on those over the cheaper studs?
Armadillo swinger guard is much like that. I have it and like it. If you chain seems somewhat close, turn the slide around. Mine is sticking off the front of the guard now

nice work rich !
i should have mentioned/suggested this before ?
i split 2" pieces of auto heater hose lengthwise, one wrapped electrical taped it to my frame in a few spots.
about 6 of them total.
it holds the skidplate down off the frame to prevent wearing thru the paint, allows water/dirt/mud to escape better and kinda adds a cushion for hard hits ?
the skidplate now has it trapped between it and the frame, the tape has long gone bye-bye
