DV8 Offroad 3.5 mm Steel Front-Section Engine Skid Plate for 6th-Gen 4Runner (2025–Present)

The DV8 Offroad Front-Section Engine Skid Plate is engineered to reinforce the 6th-Gen Toyota 4Runner’s front undercarriage, protecting vital components like the engine and intercooler from rocks, roots, and trail debris. By maintaining access to the oil filter and integrating seamlessly with factory mounting points, the skid plate provides a balance of durability, serviceability, and off-road readiness.

Fabricated from 3.5-millimeter steel, the skid plate is designed to absorb impacts while maintaining structural integrity under repeated off-road use. The four-point mounting system secures the skid firmly to the factory subframe, reducing vibration and preventing shifting off-road.

The skid plate follows the contour of the engine bay and factory undercarriage to preserve clearance and allow maintenance access. A micro-textured black powder-coated finish protects against corrosion and abrasion, providing a rugged appearance that complements the underside.

Engineered for trail durability, the skid plate deflects rocks and debris away from critical components while maintaining compatibility with DV8 or OEM rear belly skid plates. Reinforced mounting points and precise alignment ensure reliable protection during aggressive off-road driving.

Fully bolt-on installation utilizes four factory mounting points and requires no cutting or modification. The secure fit minimizes rattling and allows for a straightforward install, with an estimated installation time of approximately 90 minutes.
