Husqvarna XC 250 Skid Plate (1984–1988) — Aircraft-Grade Aluminum, Made in the USA
The XC 250 was built to rip across open desert and sand whoops — Husqvarna's answer to high-speed cross-country riding. Unlike the tight-trail WR, the XC had the longer suspension travel, longer wheelbase, and chassis geometry dialed in for sustained speed across western terrain where you keep the throttle wide open. This Ricochet skid plate wraps your undercarriage in protection from rocks, stumps, and all the stuff desert riding throws at you. It bolts straight on — no drilling, no tapping, no frame mods needed.
What You Get
- Full skid plate with clear anodized finish
- Heat-treated Chrome-Moly mounting clamps that clamp tight
- All bolts and fasteners you need for a solid, rattle-free fit
The Material
Built from 5052-H32 aircraft-grade aluminum that's 0.160" thick — tough enough to take hits from rocks and logs, but without the overkill weight. Comes with a clear anodized finish right out of the box that protects the metal and keeps things looking sharp.
Installation
The heat-treated Chrome-Moly clamps do all the work. No drilling holes in your frame, no tapping threads. Bolts mount in minutes and stays locked down tight — nothing loose, nothing rattling even when you're pushing hard miles from anywhere.
Black Powder Coat Option
Want an all-black look instead? Add the black powder coat finish for $30. Just plan on an extra 1 to 2 weeks before it ships out the door.
Proudly Made in the USA.
