Am I missing a skid plate?????
Or is there a factory option to add to the existing front skid plate?

So I was crawling around under my 2018 TRD OR Premium last night, trying to get a feel for the installation of sliders. Looking at the factory engine skid plate I noticed two good size tabs on the rear corners of the skid extending to the rear about two inches.

The tabs look like they were specifically engineered to bolt to a secondary trans/t-case skid plate.

Does Toyota make a secondary skid for our 4Runners? Should I already have it?

Thanks
