Trail Tacoma Reviews The Heavy Duty Skid Plate Kit
Aluminum Vs Steel Skid Plates
"Ironman 4X4 Heavy-Duty Steel Skid Plate Kit strikes a good balance between weight and protection. The kit has a 4mm thick steel construction – equivalent to a little over 1/8″ – and it has a ton of sleek features so that it can perform best when on the trail. Another cool little feature that makes this kit all the better is the integrated service inspection holes that allow you to drain fluids from the bottom of your truck when you’re completing a service without removing the entire skid assembly.
One cool aspect that I love about this set is the recessed hardware locations. The bolt heads sit above the surface of the bottom of the skids, so when you have to penguin slide over a pile of rocks, those bolts won’t get you hung up.
The Ironman kit provides one of the best all-around skid plate packages. An almost perfect combination of weight, price, and durability. If you’re looking for an excellent skid plate package, I highly recommend you look at this choice from Ironman. Similar enough in weight to an all aluminum set, and plenty of protection, but at a MUCH better price point." Trail Tacoma, read the full review here.
