Duraflex Ice Scratcher Mount Location

[TheKoning]

I bought a pair of dura flex ice scratchers (as seen below mounted on an AC's skid or something)

I am interested to see where people placed them. The only spot i see on a nytro xtx skid frame that is not too far back is in front of the idler wheel that the spring is sitting on. Because of the idler wheel there is no spot for me to wrap the scratcher onto the skid frame, in the case i dont want them down at that moment. Or do people run them down all the time?
I want to see pics please

How about a good ole piece of bicycle tire inner tube. Fourteen inches long, cut a one inch hole at one end, feed that end around the tread of the running board and run the other end through the hole, then hook your scratcher into the two little holes that you cut into the end that is hanging down.

If you can move the wheel further forward and put the scratcher behind. This is where I have them mounted on a MTX . We leave ours down all the time. Sometimes I have to unhook one because it will flick up and get hooked on the rail at high speeds.
