Before You Buy: RCI Skid Plates for Off-Road Toyota Builds
Posted by Bryan Swepston on 6/28/2020 to
Before you Buy
We spend a ton of time, effort, and hard-earned cash on our off-road Toyota builds, so why take a chance with underbody damage that could totally ruin all those sweet aftermarket components you just installed on your Toyota? RCI Off-Road has the solution, the RCI Skid Plates. These skid plates are designed to strengthen and protect the underbody of your
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma,
or
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner,
off-road build from pesky hazards that can damage or destroy those sweet, sweet, expensive components that are typically completely exposed. With these skids installed, you'll be sliding over rocks and debris while laughing directly in the face of Mother Nature.
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma & 2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner Front Engine Skid Plate
The front-end of your Toyota typically suffers the brunt of any bumps or bangs that might occur during off-road adventuring. The RCI Front Engine Skid Plate is designed to protect the critical components located near the front of your Toyota, namely the power steering unit, front differential, front cross-member, engine bay, and radiator. Each of these skid plates features heavy-duty construction and durability for the gnarliest off-road applications. The skid plates are available in black powder-coated steel or 5052 aluminum with or without the black powder coat. No matter what Toyota is your flavor, here at Stage 3 we have the
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma RCI Front Skid Plate
and
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner RCI Front Skid Plate
available to upgrade your off-road build.
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma & 2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner Transmission Skid Plate
The transmission of your Toyota is one of the most critical parts of the whole vehicle, which is why it is vital that you protect it from the evils of trail debris and obstacles! Thankfully RCI has you covered (literally) in that department as well, with the RCI Transmission/Transfer Case Skid Plate. These plates feature the same high-quality build as the other RCI skid plates and are available in black powder-coated steel or 5052 aluminum with or without the black powder coat, so you can be completely sure your transmission is protected with a
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma RCI Transmission Skid Plate
or
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner RCI Transmission Skid Plate.
Once you install one of these skid plates, you can have confidence that you won't knock your transmission out of commission while traversing the gnarliest of trails.
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma & 2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner Transfer Case Skid Plate
The RCI Transfer Case Skid Plates offer protection for your Toyota's cross-member, transfer case, and exhaust with the same black powder-coated steel or 5052 aluminum with or without the black powder coat to shield them from the elements. The rear-end of your underbody can see some serious damage, especially if you're hauling a bunch of gear, so ensure you don't have expensive repairs after an excellent retreat from civilization with the
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma RCI Transfer Case Skid Plate
or
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner RCI Transfer Case Skid Plate.
Load up the cargo compartment or bed of your Toyota with whatever gear you need without worry once you install one of these skids.
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma & 2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner Fuel Tank Skid Plate
The fuel tank of your Toyota is one of the most vulnerable areas on the entire vehicle. The last thing you want is to be out in the middle of nowhere, enjoying all the glory of nature, and suddenly you bash your fuel tank on a sharp rock and BAM, you're losing fuel, and you're stuck out there. I hope you brought your hiking boots. Make sure you don't find yourself in that situation with the high-quality, black powder-coated steel or 5052 aluminum with or without the black powder coat finish
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma RCI Fuel Tank Skid Plate
or
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner RCI Fuel Tank Skid Plate.
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma & 2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner Full Skid Plate Package
Finally, if you want to have the ultimate underbody protection for your Toyota, the RCI Full Skid Plate Package is where you want to start. These packages include most, if not all, of the skid plates previously mentioned. You can be sure that no silly rocks, stumps, or debris are going to damage the underbody of your Toyota with one of the
2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma RCI Full Skid Plate Packages
or
2010-2020 Toyota 4Runner RCI Full Skid Plate Packages.
These kits are fairly easy on the wallet too, when you consider the amount you'll be shelling out when you smash the precious components on the underbody of your Toyota.
We think you're going to really love the protection and peace-of-mind the RCI Skid Plates provide for your off-road Toyota build. Sound off in the comments below and let us know what you think of these awesome skid plates!
