RCI makes them from 3\/16-inch steel with a smooth, flat face so the truck slides over obstacles instead of catching on them. They are available with a black powder coat for a rust-resistant finish, and they bolt to existing factory attachment points in a few minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stock front skid plate is the main thing to plan around: these plates are not compatible with it unless you cut the OEM plate, so decide up front whether you are replacing or modifying it. One part number covers both trucks, which keeps the choice simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner and the 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma. There is one important caveat: these plates are not compatible with the OEM front skid plate unless you cut the OEM plate, so plan on removing or modifying it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe A-arm skid plates, all hardware and installation instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstall notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirect bolt-on to existing factory attachment points, no drilling required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions before you order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitment questions are easier to settle before the box ships.
