Shield your vehicle's transmission with the robust skid plate crafted by RCI Metalworks. This essential protection piece integrates effortlessly with RCI's front and transfer-case skid plates or functions excellently on its own. Ideal for replacing the original fiber cover on Ecoboost models, the RCI transmission skid plate delivers superior durability. Available in either steel or aluminum, it offers enhanced reinforcement over the factory fiber cover, which tends to absorb water and detach. RCI's skid plate features a more extensive design, offering double the protection range of the standard partial coverage from the OEM plate.
ADDITIONAL PRODUCT REQUIRED: For easy and clean oil changes with the skid plate installed, a Fumoto or Ronin valve is recommended. Especially for 2.7L EcoBoost and Diesel trims, without these valves, you would need to remove the skid plate for oil servicing.
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH: This skid plate will not fit vehicles with drop bracket lift kits.
LEAD TIME INFORMATION: Please note that there is an estimated lead time of 2-4 weeks for the Steel option and 4-6 weeks for the Aluminum option from the time of your order.
- Estimated Lead Time: 2-4 weeks Steel / 4-6 weeks Aluminum
- Weight: 20lbs Aluminum / 30lbs Steel
- Additional Weight: 35 lbs.
- Dimensions: 37 × 23 × 3 in
- Material Options: 10 Gauge Steel – Black Powder Coat, 1/4" 5052 Aluminum – Raw Metal, 1/4" 5052 Aluminum – Black Powder Coat

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.
