Keep Rocks and Trail Debris Off Your Tacoma's Underbody
The front end of a 2024 and newer Toyota Tacoma takes the first hit from rocks, stumps, and ice chunks on the trail. ARB's front skid plate, part number 5423060, is a pressed and folded steel plate that bolts directly to the frame to shield the radiator, front differential, and oil sump without adding meaningful ground clearance loss. It is built to work with the OE bumper or an ARB bumper, so it fits into an existing build without forcing a bumper swap.
Key Features
- 3mm pressed and folded sheet steel construction protects the radiator, front differential, and sump from trail impacts
- Zinc plated and powder coated in a textured grey finish for corrosion resistance
- Recessed mounting locations keep bolts protected from impact and easy to access for service
- Mounts directly to the vehicle frame for structural rigidity, not just to the bumper
- Compatible with factory OE bumpers and ARB bumpers
- Works alongside ARB rear skid plates for full underbody coverage
