Description

RCI Offroad A-Arm Skid Plates - Toyota Tacoma (2024-Present)

Uncompromised Lower Control Arm Defense. Precision Fit. Cam Tab Protection.

The Ultimate Defense for Your 4th Gen Tacoma

The RCI Offroad A-Arm Skid Plates are engineered to protect the most vulnerable low-hanging components of your 2024+ Toyota Tacoma. While the factory setup leaves your lower control arms (LCAs) and cam tabs exposed to rocks and debris, RCI armor provides a bulletproof shield that ensures you make it back from the trail every time.

Engineered and manufactured in the USA, these plates don't just protect against impacts; they provide a smooth, flat surface that allows your truck to slide over obstacles rather than getting hung up on your suspension components.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: The LCAs on the 4th Gen Tacoma are low-hanging targets. A single rock strike can bend a control arm or knock your cam tabs out of place, ruining your alignment and leading to $1,000+ in suspension repairs.
The RCI Solution: We use 3/16" Steel or 1/4" Aluminum to wrap your arms in armor, protecting the front, bottom, and rear of the LCA while securing your factory alignment settings.

Material Choice

Choose between heavy-duty 3/16" steel for rock crawling or 1/4" 5052 aluminum for weight savings and corrosion resistance.

Sliding Surface

The smooth, flat-bottom design reduces friction, allowing your Tacoma to slide effortlessly over obstacles that would catch on bare arms.

Durable Finish

Available with a heavy-duty black powder coat that provides professional aesthetics and long-lasting rust resistance.

Precision American Engineering

We don't believe in "universal" fits. These A-arm skids are custom laser-cut and CNC-formed specifically for the 4th Generation Tacoma chassis. Every kit includes high-strength hardware to ensure your armor stays put through washboard roads and technical trails alike.

Real Owner Feedback ★★★★★

"The lower control arms on the new Tacoma look so exposed from the factory. I put these RCI skids on in about 15 minutes. The fit is perfect, and you can tell they are built to take a hit. I went with the aluminum to keep the weight down, and the black powder coat matches the frame perfectly."

- Jake M., 2024 Tacoma TRD Off-Road Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Will these fit the i-FORCE MAX Hybrid models?

These are currently verified for non-hybrid models. While the suspension layout is similar, we have not yet officially confirmed fitment for the Hybrid TRD Pro or Trailhunter. Stay tuned for updates.

+ Should I choose Steel or Aluminum?

3/16" Steel is the ultimate choice for rock crawling where the skids will take constant, heavy hits. 1/4" Aluminum is ideal for overlanders who want protection against occasional strikes without adding excessive weight or worrying about rust.

+ Do these interfere with an alignment?

No. These plates actually help protect your alignment by shielding the cam tabs. Your technician can still perform an alignment, though the plates are easily removable with a few bolts if full access is required.

+ How long is the installation?

Installation typically takes 15 to 30 minutes with basic hand tools. Since they use factory attachment points, it is a very straightforward process.

+ Is drilling required?

No drilling or permanent modification is required. These are 100% bolt-on using provided hardware.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
