I replaced that plate when I first got mine and it got torn off again, I later found out that most people have the same problem and just leave it off. I'm not sure if the studs are hitting it or big chunks of ice are getting dragged into it but I haven't seen any damage running without it.

Are you talking about the plate at the rear of the tunnel that has a long bolt and a wingnut holding it on? if so then I can confirm that mine is all torn to peices too. To me it looks more like chunks of ice hitting rather than studs.

I'll have to take another look I'm working and sled is up
At my lakehouse I will let u kno
I thought it was cause my fatass!!

It is not the plate covering the muffler i'n rear it's the next
Cover smaller with Allen key holding it on. It's shredded from the studs not ice chunks. Any advice?
