It protects the front two cross-members, the low-hanging front differential and the oil pan. A differential cage lets the plate sit tighter to the truck than competing designs, according to RCI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eService openings allow oil changes without removal, reinforced edges between cross-members add rigidity, and bolt protector rings shield exposed bolts. Center mounting points provide strength whether you choose steel or aluminum, and the design accommodates trucks with or without differential drop kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma.
