Key Features

Deep-stamped 1/4-inch marine-grade aluminum, about 30% lighter than steel
Covers the transmission and transfer case in one plate
Purpose-built for the 2016-2023 Tacoma 3rd-gen 4WD underbody
Zinc primer plus powder-coat finish for corrosion resistance
Integrated access door for oil changes without removal
No-drill install to factory mounting points
Integrates with the factory TRD front skid plate

The Rival 4x4 2333.9541.2.6 is a deep-stamped 1/4-inch aluminum transmission and transfer case skid plate for the 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma (3rd generation) 4WD. It armors the transmission and transfer case section of the underbody against rocks, ruts and trail debris while adding minimal weight.

Formed from marine-grade aluminum with reinforcing ribs pressed into the deep-stamped profile, the plate absorbs hard impacts yet runs roughly 30% lighter than an equivalent steel plate. A zinc-primer base coat and powder-coated top finish resist corrosion, and an integrated access door lets you change the oil without removing the skid.

What's included: One transmission/transfer-case skid plate with mounting hardware. No drilling required; it integrates with the factory TRD front skid plate for continuous underbody coverage.

Fitment: Fits 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma 3rd-generation 4WD models (the transfer-case coverage applies to 4WD trucks). Does not fit the 2005-2015 2nd-generation Tacoma or the 2024+ 4th-generation Tacoma, which use different Rival skid plates.

FAQ

Does this fit a 4th-gen (2024+) Tacoma?

No. The 2333.9541.2.6 is engineered for the 2016-2023 3rd-generation Tacoma underbody. The 2024+ i-Force Tacoma uses a different Rival transmission/cat skid.

What area does it protect?

It covers the transmission and transfer case. Rival offers a separate engine skid plate to complete front-to-mid underbody protection.

Can I keep the factory TRD skid plate?

Yes. It is designed to integrate with the OE TRD front skid plate for continuous coverage.

Do I need to drill?

No. It bolts to factory mounting points and includes an access door for oil changes.
