Skid plates

[rfjtoy]

Is anyone offering after market skid plates yet? I'm looking for somthing to replace my mangled stock ones that might extend over the transmission.

Thanks,

I'm with you on this, mine is mangled and I'm in desperate need of a strong plate and belly pan.
Budbuilt has his design in laser cutting and will be priced in the 3-350 range. Send him an e-mail, he will reply.
Demello is also out to laser cut but has no dates in mind.

The diff skid will fit the tacoma,4-runner, and FJ. Both skids were made for my tacoma. They just finished tweeking the engine skid to fit my FJ.

Looks good - thanks for posting!

about $40 more than downey's front skid, but appears to have better coverage.

Skid looks great. Is there going to be some kind of protection for the bolts so that they won't get ripped off?

Of course, for an extremely large fee. Only kidding, you can pick up whatever you like as long as it is in stock, we ask that you phone the order in ahead of time so we can make sure we can get you everything. We also have a full service shop that can install everything you buy. We are located in Simi Valley, CA.
