Artec Industries 2017-2023 Toyota Tacoma 3G Bellypan Skid Plate

Artec Industries is known for making well-built, heavy-duty armor for off-road vehicles, and this bellypan skid plate for your 2017-2023 Toyota Tacoma is no exception. If you're looking to protect the vital components underneath your truck from trail damage, this is a solid option. It covers the area from the front of the transmission to the transfer case, shielding your oil pan, transmission, and transfer case from impacts and abrasions.

This bellypan is constructed from 3/16-inch thick steel, which is strong enough to withstand serious abuse on the trail. The design incorporates a smooth, flat surface that helps your truck slide over obstacles rather than getting hung up on them. All mounting points are designed to be robust, ensuring the skid plate stays securely in place even under harsh conditions. The installation process is designed to be straightforward, utilizing existing mounting locations where possible, though some minor modifications might be needed depending on your specific truck's setup. It’s a substantial piece of armor that adds a significant layer of protection for serious off-roading.

When installing this bellypan, it's a good idea to have a helper as it is a large and heavy component. Ensure you have the necessary tools for working with steel, such as wrenches and possibly a torque wrench to properly secure all mounting hardware. This skid plate is a key component for anyone who frequently takes their Tacoma off the beaten path and wants to ensure the drivetrain stays protected.
