Over time the centre cross member on my Stage 1 has got somewhat bent from being high centred. I am thinking about what it will take to have it straightened or replaced with something more substantial. Since that needs to be done I thought it would be a good idea to take steps to prevent that from needing to be done again with some kind of skid plate.

From time to time I have heard from people about adding things like skid plates, etc to the cross member but never seen anything like that, nor any photos. Does anyone have links to, or photos of, under chassis protection for these bulldozer blades?
