RCI Metalworks Warranty
At a glance: Lifetime structural warranty for the original purchaser; 180 days on powder coat
This is RCI Metalworks' warranty, not an NVMOS policy. We've summarized it in plain English to save you a search. The manufacturer's official terms always govern and can change without notice. Last reviewed on nvmos.com: October 14, 2026.

What's not covered

Disclaimer: The information on this page describes RCI Metalworks' own warranty policy. It is not a warranty offered by NVMOS (No Visible Means of Support LLC). Manufacturers update their terms at any time; we review these pages periodically, but the manufacturer's current official policy is the one that applies to your claim.

This RCI package puts engine, transmission and transfer-case skid plates under the 2023 and newer Colorado in one order. Together they protect the front two cross-members, the low-hanging front differential, oil pan, transmission, the second and third cross-members, the exhaust cross pipe and the transfer case. They are a straightforward replacement for weak, lightweight OEM plating, and they are compatible with ZR2 models.
Each plate is laser cut in 3/16" steel or 1/4" aluminum. Steel comes with a black powder coat, and the full package weighs 112 lbs in steel or 49 lbs in aluminum. A built-in oil drain hole means you can change the oil without removing a plate. Reinforced edges between cross-members stiffen the spans, bolt protector rings shield exposed hardware, and the transmission plate is RCI's latest and strongest design.
Fitment
2023 and newer Chevy Colorado, 4x4 models only. Fitment is not verified on 2WD models, and it does not fit diesel models.
What's included
Engine skid plate, transmission skid plate and transfer-case skid plate, with hardware.
Install notes
Direct bolt-on to existing factory attachment points with no drilling, and RCI calls it an easy DIY install.
Questions before you order?
Fitment questions are easier to settle before the box ships. Call or text Carl & Anton at (920) 249-7744 or use the chat — real humans in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, not a call center.
