Anyone done it? What are the modifications needed?

I put the predecessor of the Pro skid (coil over shock), the Holz rear skid, into my 550 Touring sled way back in 2001. Point being a Holz Alpha X skid, and I am sure many others, will bolt right on into your IQ. That is the easiest way I know to go about going to the current design craze.
I put my 2011 Assault skid in my 2009 Dragon with no issues. I used the metric bolts that came on the Assault in the Dragon and vice-versa.
LOL isn't it just great that you need two sets of wrenches and no place to put them

I was wondering the same thing. This is good to know, now can a guy find a rear skid off of a pro. They work so well there are not as may laying around like there was when the IQ was hot. I snowcheck a new one, and was going to sell my D8 with the big bore. But if I could change the rear, I might keep it around.
That's it? Simple bolt on? I thought I would have to drill mounting holes for sure.
Thanks for the help!
FYI the bolt heads are basically the exact same size, and the 14mm wrench fits tighter on bolts that require a 9/16" lessening the chance of damage and helping keep the zinc coating on the bolts.
