RCI Offroad Fuel Tank Skid Plate | Toyota Tacoma (2005-2023)

The RCI Offroad Fuel Tank Skid Plate for 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma shields your fuel tank from rock strikes, undercarriage damage, and costly repairs. A single puncture to an unprotected tank can strand you in the field and cost hundreds in replacement parts. RCI's laser-cut, CNC-formed design bolts directly to your factory fuel tank support straps with zero modification required on most applications.

Built for the Trail, Engineered for Your Tacoma

This skid plate absorbs impact energy and deflects sharp terrain while keeping weight down. Choose between two material options depending on your weight and protection priorities—each engineered for durability without sacrificing handling.

• 10 Gauge Steel Construction: Reduces weight by 30% compared to 3/16″ steel while maintaining superior puncture resistance and impact absorption using factory fuel tank support straps.
• 1/4″ 5052 Aluminum Option: Delivers nearly 50% weight reduction from steel, ideal for built rigs where unsprung weight matters. Same protection profile, measurably lighter package.
• Precision Fit: Laser-cut and CNC-formed for factory-tight gaps and finish—no grinding, filling, or secondary fabrication needed on double cab short bed and access cab TRD Offroad models.
• Bolt-On Installation: Mounts with provided hardware in minutes using existing factory attachment points. No welding, no drilling, no cutting on compatible configurations.
• Extended Fitment: Fits double cab short bed, access cab with TRD Offroad package, and double cab long bed (long bed models require separate Toyota TRD fuel tank strap purchase).

Fitment: 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma (2nd & 3rd Generation)

This skid plate is engineered for all Tacoma generations from the 2005 model year through 2023. Fitment varies by cab configuration and trim: double cab short bed and access cab models with TRD Offroad package mount directly using factory hardware. Double cab long bed configurations require the purchase of Toyota TRD fuel tank straps to complete the installation. Use the fitment verifier above to confirm compatibility with your exact configuration.
