    Oh hm. I'll have to take a look, but I don't think it is. Maybe I can rig something up real quick with sheet metal to protect it.

    I've bent the TRD skid and cracked the front bumper busting through ice.

    I don't mind cracking the bumper - I have a replacement coming eventually. I'm more concerned about the radiator/etc so maybe I'll put a 2-3 inch sheet of metal to cover the opening in the bottom.

    I went pushing through ice last time I was there and the noises pushed me back. The folks watching said I was fine but there was a lot of cab noise that turned me off, so I backed out and went the way everyone else did.

    Take it off! Throw it in the back of the garage, where it will stay, because you will never put it back on.

    I have a silver bumper cover if you need one. It needs the corner pushed out, and is scratched, but it's free if you need it.

    Nah it was scuffed up on the corner, you can probably sand and fix it but it's free... haha
    I picked it up for free with a rear bumper and trailer hitch setup. I needed parts to mock up something.
