    I bought a TrailHunter OEM. $340, if I recall. Seems quality. It has two slotted bolt holes for easy on and off for oil changes.

    RCI is where it’s at! I have run them on all of my previous builds!

    I really like this style of high-lip, one-piece skid plate like Total Chaos made in-house for their project Tacoma.

    Is anyone actually selling something like this?

    More than I need but still not enough.
    I went with RCI because they had the best price when I purchased it. It’s a quality piece but I’m sure they all are.

    Any 3rd party company offering a replacement for the Felt cover on a Sport model yet?

    As far as skids plates any of these aftermarket ones will fit a sport you will just need to add a small corssmemeber upfront to get all 6 bolts in, RCI sells a bolt in crossmember for cheap!

    RCI with add-on cross member, IMHO best features and price.

    Victory 4x4 makes one which attaches underneath the recovery hooks (where the cross member would bolt on) which doesn't require the need for a cross member. I was just on their website today and noticed they have changed the design slightly and I think it's a better design now.

    Was hoping to buy the Toyota one that comes on an off road, but they’re on back order OR Preownd from an off road owner who is changing out theirs……

    not going to be off roading my Sport or want the extra weight……

    anyone out there who wants to sell theirs, drop me a message

    I bought the OEM TrailHunter for $340. They are pressed form and then hardened.
