2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma (All Generations)
The RCI Offroad Transfer Case Skid Plate for 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma shields your transfer case, third cross-member, and exhaust pipe from rocks, roots, and trail debris. Unlike the factory skid plate that bolts to the frame and disperses impact poorly, this RCI plate attaches directly to the transfer case for solid, concentrated protection where it counts.
Built for the Trail, Engineered for Your Tacoma
Your Tacoma's transfer case is exposed on the undercarriage and vulnerable to damage on rough terrain. RCI Offroad's direct-mount design eliminates the weak point of OEM protection by bolting hard to the component itself, so every impact transfers force directly to the transfer case housing instead of bleeding energy through a loose frame connection.
- Material choice: Laser-cut 3/16″ steel or 1/4″ aluminum — pick steel for maximum durability on technical terrain, or aluminum for weight savings without sacrificing strength.
- Direct transfer-case mounting: Bolts solidly to the transfer case rather than frame crossmembers, ensuring impact force goes where protection is needed instead of dispersing uselessly.
- Reinforced edge design: Gusseted edges between cross-members add structural rigidity and prevent flex under rock strikes or high-centering loads.
- Complete undercarriage coverage: Protects transfer case, third cross-member, and exhaust pipe in one system — no gaps where damage can sneak in.
- Custom-fit fabrication: Laser-cut construction ensures precise fitment across all 2005–Present Tacoma generations without binding or rattling.
