    All aluminum. Can't say no to free skids as they needed a Tundra to start designs on due to demand apparently.

    Comes with a plastic fuel skid, transfer skid (heavy duty, just smaller than the transfer case) and of course the TRD stock skid.

    They were also talking about designing some heavier duty steps for it. I already have ADD "Venom" on, but if they want to make some heavier duty ones, have at it!

    Well I've been to mod days with a lot of TW members and of course it turns into a party. And it's the fun part. :D But I need to stay focused on the truck.

    I thought your only job was to bring a non-Michelin tire and a random socket.

    So, they needed a tundra to use as a prototype so they can build more due to demand of requests they've been receiving.

    I would go AL on the gas tank skids. AL does not generate sparks.

    I had 2 huskies for about 4 yrs, when they weren't stealing whatever from each other they would gang up on me in a coordinated effort. In retrospect it was funny, but at the time, not so much. BTW, 2 huskies not making noise & not asleep on their pillows is NOT good.

    @Squeaky Penguin do you know the size of the allen wrench for front diff fill plug. I've check all the ones I have and they are to small. @Night Eagle, @teamhypoxia would you happen to have one. If not i'll run out to get one.

    @SilverGhost, have you removed that fill plug at all?
    This could be your project for the day....
