Installed my RCI Off-road front skid plate on the taco and love it. I want to thank RCI for taking care of people like me that were affected by the pelfreybilt big bankruptcy mess. It was a pleasure doing business with them and I will be back for more toys. Here’s my video of the install:

Best customer experience I have ever had, REALLY. I procrastinated buying a nicer front skid plate until 2 weeks before a trip to Moab with my friends and I emailed RCI asking if there was any way I could get one before the trip (typical wait time 2-3 weeks). They responded within an hour and shipped me one that was sitting in the warehouse THE SAME DAY so I could have it for my trip. I know this won’t be the case all of the time and I lucked out, but it goes to show the lengths they go through for their customers! Will be buying more products from them soon!

I ordered on a Friday and got it the next Tuesday with no damage.
Fit was perfect and it replaced the 2 thin factory plates. It is very well built and sturdy.
Install took less then an hour but you will need someone to help hold it up until you get a few bolts in it. 🙂

This is the best thing I’ve done to my taco! Went off-roading and one of my tires slid off a rock and dropped the truck about a foot on the rock, saved my taco! Thank you RCI

Simply awesome products. I have the front skid plate and transmission skid plate mounted on my 2019 Tacoma TRD Off-Road. Transfer case skid plate is next. Great company. Pleasure to do business with these folks!
