Our all aluminum Tacoma skid plate system for 2005-2023 Toyota Tacomas are made from beefy 1/4" aluminum and offer great, light weight protection that won’t weigh you down. No rust, no excessive weight, and full undercarriage protection.
This full skid plate system includes an engine skid, transmission skid, and transfer case skid that nest into each other to create one solid piece for full undercarriage protection. In addition, if you have our Backwoods Tacoma Front Bumper, you can also purchase and install our connector plate that covers the gap between the front bumper and the top of the engine skid. The result is a seamless, completely protected front end.

Note - If you retain your front sway bar, use our frame support brackets, run a suspension with reservoir brackets, and have this skid system, your sway bar may contact the top ears of the engine skid plate once all of these components are stacked together. Slight trimming of the top sides of our skid plate may be required.

Everything we offer qualifies for FREE shipping within the 48 Contiguous United States. For large items that ship via truck freight, including bumpers, we recommend shipping to a commercial address with a loading dock in order to take advantage of 100% FREE shipping. If no loading dock is present or if shipped to a residential location, you will be charged our residential location fee of $150. This simply pays for the delivery driver to physically unload large/bulky items off of the truck. Even if shipped to a residential location, we still pay the actual shipping cost, just not the $150 lift gate fee.
