Description

RCI Offroad Skid Plate Package | 19-Present Ram 1500

Ultimate Undercarriage Defense. 100% Bolt-On. Made in the USA.

The Ultimate Defense for Your Ram 1500

The RCI Offroad Skid Plate Package provides the maximum protection for your 2019-Present Ram 1500. Whether you are navigating rocky trails, working on the job site, or protecting your truck from road debris, RCI Metalworks delivers the ultimate armor for your investment.

Precision-engineered in the USA, this package replaces thin factory "protection" with heavy-duty materials designed to slide over obstacles and shield your most expensive mechanical components.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Modern trucks come with fragile plastic or thin stamped-steel guards that offer zero protection against real impacts, leading to thousands in repair costs.
The RCI Solution: High-strength 10ga Steel or 1/4" Aluminum plates that cover your engine, transmission, and transfer case with a 100% No-Drill Installation.

RCI Offroad Ram 1500 Skid Plate Package Raw Aluminum
Key Features: Complete Armor System

Complete Coverage

Protects the power steering unit, front differential, engine oil pan, transmission, exhaust, and transfer case.

Service Friendly

Built-in oil drain holes allow you to perform routine maintenance without ever removing the plates.

No-Drill Install

A direct bolt-on addition using existing factory attachment points. No permanent vehicle modifications required.

Smooth Underside

Flat surface design ensures your truck slides easily over obstacles rather than getting hung up on cross-members.

Bumper Compatible

Seamlessly fits with plastic, capable, and modular front bumpers for a clean, integrated look.

Corrosion Resistance

Steel plates are heavy-duty powder coated; Aluminum options offer natural rust-proof performance.

Heavy Duty Hardware

All required installation hardware is included, featuring high-quality fasteners built for off-road abuse.

American Made

Designed, tested, and manufactured in the USA by RCI Metalworks for guaranteed fit and finish.

Customer Reviews ★★★★★

"The fitment on my 2022 Ram 1500 was perfect. I was tired of seeing my low-hanging transmission cooler exposed to rocks. These skids are beefy and the oil change ports align perfectly with the Hemi's filter. It took me about 45 minutes to install the whole package by myself."

- Mark S., Ram 1500 Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Do I have to remove the skid plates for an oil change?

No. RCI designs their skid plates with integrated oil drain holes. On most models, you can access the drain plug and the filter without having to remove the armor, saving you time and mess during maintenance.

+ Will this fit the Ram 1500 Classic?

Unfortunately, no. This package is designed specifically for the New Body Style (2019+) Ram 1500. The chassis on the Classic models is different and will not accept these mounting points.

+ Which material is better for me, Steel or Aluminum?

Choose Steel if you plan on heavy rock crawling or want the best price-to-protection ratio. Choose Aluminum if you are concerned about fuel economy, payload weight, or live in a "rust belt" area where road salt is common.

+ Is drilling required for installation?

No. The RCI Ram 1500 package is a direct bolt-on. It uses factory holes that are already present in your truck's frame. You only need basic hand tools for the installation.

+ Do I need to remove my air dam?

Yes, the installation of the front engine skid plate requires the removal of the factory plastic air dam to allow the plate to mount correctly to the front cross-member.

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
