Bay Area Metal Fab 05-Up Tacoma Skid Plate

The 2005-2021 Toyota Tacoma IFS Skid is designed true to the BAMF name! In our experience for true rock crawling, wheeling 3/16th plate is just not enough for skids and don't get me started on Aluminum. These are pure beast - constructed from 100% .250" A36 plate steel CNC laser cut and CNC formed with gussets welded to the front and rear section, making this one of, if not the strongest IFS skid on the market today. Even the 1.5" tube risers for mounting are .250" wall tubing No expenses were spared when designing this skid. We bent the sides to 90 degrees and still tuck it with in a 1/2" to the diff. I've seen many of other skids with the sides only bent to 45 or 60 degrees – this leaves it weak and easier to bend. We took the flanges to a full 90 degrees and made them much larger than most companies do, creating a solid support for your truck. As if the .250" plate and tall sides at 90 degrees weren’t enough, we braced the front bash plate with .250" gussets, a common failure point on most skids. We also took it one step further designing the 90 degree webs on the front bash plate and the bottom overlap just right, enabling us to weld the two together - creating yet another brace - something that no one we have seen does.

(NOTE) Only bare metal will be shipped VIA UPS. If you order powder coated it will have to be shipped LTL to protect the coating. Another invoice for the difference will be sent for the remaining balance.
