I think I'm going to keep the factory skid plate upfront and invest in a mid skid plate, transfer case skid plate, and gas tank skid plate. I figure I'd swap out the front skid plate after it gets banged up a bit and I determine I really need it. Wondering what you guys think? Is that factory skid plate really that bad? I'm thinking since it's already protected upfront I can use my resources in another part of the overall build.

It's just a piece of sheet metal. First time you give it a good wack its toast.

This may not apply to your truck, but hopefully some others on here find this useful. DV8 skiplate. only one I could find that did not have a built in oil filter hatch. This one works great for my 2.7 4cyl. No need to drop the skid for oil changes.

Thread revival time! I was curious what you thought of this skid. I haven’t found any reviews on YouTube, etc.

Its good ! I keep my truck oil undercoated annually just about and Mine has held up great for several years now. Solid skid. Never bashed it on anything though.

Love my RCI Engine, Trans, and free cat guards. Amazing customer service and quick delivery. I'll be adding the Transfer skid at some point after I reroute the exhaust. Truck is still too new to start chopping the exhaust...
