    Too many, but not enough....
    Send them an email saying you are planning to get their full armor kit for your truck and you would appreciate a discount code.

    You would be shocked how often that has resulted in a 15% off code for me.

    I just answered your last post. If your military or first responder you will get a discount.

    I emailed them a few days ago with no response and I only want the skid plate. Also I have recently seen some 3rd party vendor sites are the same price but provide free shipping, they do not which eats up the 15% discount you are referring too if there is any.

    I recently purchased a skid plate from RCI. I think I only had a 5% discount code but was surprised at the low shipping cost. Try going through the buying process all the way through shipping and you may be surprised.

    Thanks for the tip. I have been looking and have not seen any. Might just get the one with free shipping as I have the front hitch and only want to install once.

    The only issue I have with that is you don't get to look around as much for signs of trouble when changing oil. Front hitch here as well. Cut off those silly little hooks and just let the bolts do there thing. I have also considered just making a door in the plate, but again, I like taking a peek. My good air ratchet has its advantages I guess.

    Well there is already a skid plate there, just with no filter access. I was going to take it off and make the cut as well but was hoping I could get the RCI on the cheap.

    It looks like RCI is having a 15% off tax-time sale right now. Not sure how long it lasts.

    It's the shipping that kills the deal. Lots of places offer free shipping which saved more than the 15%

    I'd call RCI and ask if they would tack on a modestTundras.com forum discount.......

    I called them first and shipping was almost $50 to me in FL from them. They had no shipping discounts. Using their 15% off I still was paying $30 more than what I ended up paying for the same product from another vendor. Also RCI gave me a estimated shipping date weeks off and the vendor I purchased from sent out the plate the next day.
