NOTE: Estimated lead time - Steel: 2-4 weeks / Aluminum Skids: 4-6 weeks.
Safeguard your vehicle's transmission system with RCI Metalworks' superior transmission skid plate. Designed to integrate flawlessly with existing RCI front and transfer-case skid plates, it also excels as an independent protective layer. This robust RCI transmission skid plate is an ideal upgrade from the factory-installed fiber cover found on Ecoboost models, ensuring lasting durability and genuine shielding. Crafted from either steel or aluminum, this plate surpasses the OEM fiber cover in robustness, which often becomes saturated with water and detaches. The engineering prowess behind the RCI plate means it covers more area, offering double the protection that the standard OEM plate provides. The 2015 – Present F150 trucks can now be equipped with RCI plates in two different versions, catering to various protection needs.
Please note that the actual product may see further enhancements that provide superior protection.

The skid plate is well made. I like the access hole for engine oil drain plug for oil changes unlike other brands I looked at. It was very easy to install. Took about 15 minutes.
Thank you for your review! We are glad that it was easy to install and that you are enjoying your new gear!
Love this rack! I'm driving cross-country from Washington to South Carolina, and needed something reliable for my longboards. Rooftop Overland (especially Bryan) were great in helping me with selecting a rack that'll fit my Tundra, and also helping with shipping (I was in a time pinch).
The Rhino rack fits well, although the instructions can be a bit confusing.
So far, 2 days in to my trip - been through high winds, rain, sleet and snow. No problem with the rack, it's solid.
I fully recommend buying from Rooftop Overland and their team! I probably wouldn't have considered this rack had it not been for their help - and totally happy.
