RCI Off Road Spring 2021 Group Buy - CLOSED

Got three emails at once!

 

My order delivered today. Granted I’m an hour south of their shop but happy to see they had inventory beefed up prior to the sale. I ordered the raw aluminum front skid and quality is great. Can’t wait to get it installed! Thanks to Mike for setting this up.

 

Painting skids....bad idea. Yellow even worse.

 

Got an email saying the trans skid shipped today .

 

I'm trying to get the fuel tank straps but it says the 15% off isn't valid ? Even though it's "All RCI Products" @mstudt

 

I believe the discount is only for products that they make.

 

Dang, I figured it would've been all products on their site. Makes sense then, thanks

 

No, just products that RCI actually makes.

Mike

 

Thanks for putting this on. Full skids on order.

 

I like to put an extra coat of paint to protect the steel from rust. If you use your skids, you’ll know what I mean. I’m thinking more along the lines of a metallic grey now to match the truck.

 

Just purchased my gas tank skid! Thank you, OP. I have full protection now.

 

I'm planning on redoing my sliders in fluorescent orange when I eventually get it around to it. I think bright colors look awesome when you're out wheeling. The gray will look sharp too, but at the same time... Rock and roll that bright yellow dude. I support it

 

Hey I'm thinking ordering the midskid and transfer case skid, rear dif skid. I'm looking to order the mid and transfer skid in aluminum. Im on the fence if i should get them powder coated. Any advice.

 

well since aluminum will not rust like the steel, if you do decide to have them powder coated it will be mostly for aesthetics
although aluminum will oxidize, that is actually in part what helps it be so corrosion resistant

 

If you just drive dirt and gravel roads maybe some light farm work, aluminum is fine and it does resist corrosion a lot longer than steel plus it's lighter. If you do actual off-roading, save the money and buy the steel then spend what you saved on powder coat.

 

I do light offroading a lityle more than gravel roads. I live in NY and was concerned with steel rusting with the road salt and brine they put on the road, thats i was going to go w aluminum

 

I live in St. Louis and drive DOT. Talk about salt and chemical exposure.... Sti running steel. They actually hold up really well. Powder coat isn't bad either, even with me beating the snot out of them while wheeling

 

Does anyone know if their 4runner rock sliders fit a 2004 tacoma v6 double cab ??

 

I can't see very well from the pictures, but could someone please inform me if it is possible to change your engine oil filter and also engine oil without removing the RCI skid plate?

 

done, 3 skids and a set of maxtrax...
now i sit and wait, for the parts and my tax return...


been kicking myself for selling my steel skids last year, this group buy 20% was a welcomed discount
