    Thread title says it all. Cheapest one I've been able to find was from TRDSparks.com. Anyone else find it cheaper at another place?

    Go to a dealership late at night with a 12mm socket, extension, and ratchet. There usually aren't people on the lot at 2am. And when most people buy new vehicles they don't look underneath.

    Other than that call a local junk yard or pick-n-pull.

    Yeah. Telling someone to go and commit a crime on a forum I am not sure if it's going to get you in shizzz, joking or not. I just thought you should know. One of the mods may have somthing to say about your post.

    Your from Canada, you've never watched The Red Green Show? In most of the Handyman Corner segments Steve Smith on National TV tells people to go steal stuff late at night or when construction crews are on break. Calm down.

    Check the B/S/T thread. They pop up every once in a while.

    those "skid plates" are purely for looks. I know from experience. . .

    if you want it for looks, by all means, but if you want something to set the truck on, money is best spent elsewhere

    Just because I live in Canada doesn't mean I watch Canadian programming. To be honest, most Canadian programs are not very good. I have not seen the show and I never will. I am calm by the way, thanks for asking though.

    Thanks for the offer. Now if only you were in northern Cali, you'd have a buyer.
