'13 Trail Skids - quick q then you can delete

[hamburglar210]

I tried searching but I'm having no luck so I apologize. Am I missing a factory skid?

I'm on mobile so Google and this site aren't being too helpful for me and I need to know if Toyota will be paid a visit this afternoon for not replacing it after an oil change.

You should have two up front

Thank you. My mechanic asked because of the tabs sticking out the back and I couldn't find anything relating to the stock skids

If your talking about #4 in the pic below ,then they only came on the Limited's before and it's a plastic transmission cover that attaches to those 2 brackets sticking out.

Been asked a bunch of times and nobody knows why they only came on LE's ,except maybe this geeky looking beancounter who stood up at the meeting on a island in East Asia located in the Pacific Ocean who emphatically screamed out...... あなたのためのトランスミッションカバーません :shrug:........translated:no transmission cover for you

Nope, they are there.

OP, you aren't missing a skidplate. Like harper said, if you had a limited you would have that plastic piece. Since you don't, its not there. You aren't missing anything.
