FS: 1st Gen STAINLESS STEEL SKID PLATES - NEPA

Send me an email 22rethan@gmail.com with your info and I'll send you a paypal invoice when Im ready to ship.

 

I'm not 100% but I think they'll fit. Can you send me a pic of your front end? Does the factory skid still fit?

 

I just got it on Jan 10th and it already had the lift on it with no factory skid plate.

 

This is the only pic I have at the moment.

 

Will do and thank you.

 

So the rear of the skid bolts in on the crossmember by the front of the lca yeah? If so, would anyone have a solution to fixing the welded nut in there, besides taking everything out and somehow welding a new one on? Ha. Because the nut broke loose and is missing.. Or is it possible to get in there and weld one without removing the lca? I can't remember what it looks like in there. But I'd imagine it'd all need to come out to get it cleaned up to actually put a tac on it. Or maybe just weld one on the bottom side?

 

FYI folks, new skids are in I only made one of each option so get 'em while I still have the one you want. Post, PM or email if you want one.

 

Mid skids?

 

bah, not yet .... Stupid 'real' job keeps taking up all my time.

 

Damn those real jobs

 

Woo-hoo!!

 

Helicoil?

I overdrilled mine for a helicoil. Wasn't too bad to get them off. Heat, a pry bar, and a hammer. Just don't forget to use a heat shield to protect your lca bushings and radiator

 

Yeah but that nut that is welded on, is gone. The tac broke loose somehow and now its just a hole:/

 

two options

1) weld a new nut on

2) get a carriage bolt that fits the skid notch. then just a normal nut. You can just get a wrench in there to tighten the nut. This is how my skid works.

 

Perfect! Why didn't I think of that. Lol.

 

I'm interested in one that says Tacoma but gotta get my tax refund first

Just send me an email when you're ready to order.

 

Ethan,

Thank you for fabricating my custom order. Looks great! Will install and update with pics soon.

 

Bruh that is freaking noice!! I may have to copy this once I get my relentless plate bumper. Think it would match up quite nicely with the holes in the bumper skid area. Idk tho. Because I also have an idea of putting a slot in the skid to mount an led bar. Just not sure if it'll fit behind it. Or maybe fab up an add on little sheet metal "tray" bolted to the skid to house the led bar. But that might look funky... Anyone have any idea how much backspace there is behind the skid tho? Would there be room to house an led bar or would it hit the radiator or something. I do have an auto so the radiator sits lower...

 

Are these still $295.00 shipped for the 3/16 thick ones with a cut out?
