Nah I need them closer to the engine bay. And I need all my bed space anyway

 

you can maintain all your bedspace with a bed rack.....


i seen a dodge the other day with a bed rack and a dirtbike loaded, granted the bed rack was HUGE but it can be done

but Ill agree, the further away the worse itll be, more fluid to add, more power needed for output on the pressure side of things

 

I was looking for good ideas, people.

I think I've figured it out for now.

 

do tell

 

Yep I need to protect them. Gonna weld it onto the tire and and slider. Also going to put a piece in front of my headlights. They're vulnerable

 

Don't forget to put a piece over the windshield those tree branches are tricky

 

Thanks for the thought. I'll implement that too.

 

Id use some thicker plate, that flimsy one is already bent

 

Smash and go plates....

 

What flimsy one?

That's 3/16" steel(same as my other skid plates). It took more than the weight if my truck to make that bend. And I've reinforced it lengthwise so it won't be pushing up.

 

Need to get 1/4 inch plate maybe 1/2 but that could be overkill haha

 

I've never seen 1/4" tacoma skids. That would he huge. And heavy. This should hold.

 

Thats a badass belly skid and Im guessing location for the cooler?

 

ATO IFS is 1/4''. And I think you can pay a little more and get Relentless IFS 1/4'', but I might be mistaken on that one.

Or are you referring to the tranny skids?

Matt

 

yup ATO and relentless offer 1/4" i wish i would have gotten a 1/4" front, I mangled mine.....

 

Wow I was just kidding I had no idea that was available

 

Nah that skid is simply to protect. The tranny cooler is going elsewhere, I think I'll mount that tomorrow

 

How? Unless you ram into rocks at 30k, 3/16" is plenty beefy. I have dents in mine from dropping down HARD. Nothing close to "mangling" it.

 

Wow, I hope we get to see pictures of the mangled skid.
