Talons Garage: New TRD 3” lift front skid plate.

Got mine yesterday, shipped super quick. Now I have to find time to install.

 

@Talon2006 once all that is done some aluminum 1st gen sliders would be awesome!

 

Sliders are kicking my butt!

mostly because I am over analyzing them.

 

Any forum pricing? I’m in the market for some skid plates.

 

I like this. I like Talons - good people.

But isn't it easier just to remove the useless, heavy sway bar?

 

They are on and looking great. Still need to add the transfer skid plate, maybe tomorrow. Wasn’t too bad doing it solo

 

Awesome customer service from Talon!

 

Got mine on over the weekend. Perfect fit.

 

Any updates on a compatible front bumper?

Have you found a solution to this? I have the factory lift and want an engine skid and front bumper

 

This is going to be a long process... I would expect sometime next year is when we will start bumpers. We did finally high a in house cad designer to help me so that might speed things up.

 

I believe I was your first customer for this new plate. Glad to see you released it to the masses, and looks like you have improved it over the original. Interested in the fuel tank skids when available.

 

May have to go with skid plate from the bumper manufaturer you go with. I purchased these Talon skid plates first and will need to replace the bumper to frame skid plate once I purchase / install the C4 Fabrications front bumper. Lessons learned along the way. I was more concerned with protecting my cats on a 3" lifted truck than front bumpers; having to replace this small skid plate is no big deal.

 

Not really. Not without drilling and cutting.

 

So these skid plates will work with a non-lifted, factory, truck?

 

We have both a plate that will work with the factory OEM truck, and one that will work with the lifted truck. The TRD Variant is for the lifted trucks.

Thank you kindly.

 

Thank you for bumping this thread! Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

 

I like the logo and the vents make sense. Easy in easy out. I just don't know which rocker rails are compatible with your skids.

Do you have a list of known rock sliders/bumpers that are compatible

Looking at RCI, CBI and ADD

Thanks

 

The Talons Garage TRD 3" skid plate variant has been popular since it came out. Our design allows us to cover the sway bar, and keep it from hanging up on obstacles. We are offering it in both 1/4" Aluminum and 10 gauge steel.

Spend the extra $$$ and get the bare aluminum. Your powder coat still needs improvement. Also the access panel for the oil filter needs to be 30% larger with a cover. Bear paws like mine make it hard to access the filter.
