TRD Skid Plate Jack Point

Does the TRD skid plate have a jack point? I know there is the “block” that goes into the cross member. Is this an intended jack point?

 

I would NOT recommend this. Frame rails or rear diff for me.

 

I believe that is a safe jack point. I used it as one to replace a bump stop (needed the LCA to droop to make space), with no issues.

 

I've also used it a few times, and in the TRD skidplate instructions, it does say it's okay, doesn't it? Pretty sure I recalled reading that.

 

Yea there's a beefy cross member right above it that the skid plate attached to right there

 

Thanks! I searched and the only one I could find was for Tacoma.

 

N O and no.

take it off

 

Please stop dissemination of incorrect information. Here's the manual indicating that point of the TRD Pro slid plate is a lifting point.

 

Don’t care… not putting strain on fasteners or a skid plate with a 6k#+ truck.
Great they engineered it to do so, I’m zipping it off there for any work. ..good to know for an emergency, I suppose. but even with the tire change out on the trail, I’d use the A arm

 

This. And sliders ftw.

 

Mmm I'll agree that I only use it as a lifting point - Jack stands go under the frame, differential or LCAs. Would never go under the vehicle on just a jack!
