Hey everyone!

We are a manufacturer of skid plates for 4x4 trucks and SUV's and have been a leading manufacturer of body armor for the F-150 for many years now.

What most folks don't realize and we have not heavily advertised, is the fact that all of our protection products are 100% compatible with the Raptor. Not only that, but we have prototyped them and tested them on the Raptor to ensure they far exceed the performance of the factory skids.

We sell complete skid plate packages that protect from the bumper to the Transfer-case with no gaps in between, not to mention plates for the 36 and 26 gallon fuel tanks.

-Our skid plates are much stronger and provide much better front end clearance than the OEM 3/16" aluminum skid.
-Front skid plate includes TWO pieces, covering the same area as both OEM skids combined.
-Second panel of skid plate can be purchased separately as a direct replacement of OEM steel cross-member skid plate, and can be used in conjunction with stock raptor front skid. *contact us for details if you wish to purchase independently.
-Raptor has NO transmission skid plate, and uses the same transfer-case and fuel tank skid plates as standard F-150. These are light duty at best and leave much to be desired!
-Any of our skid plates can be used as standalone replacements if you wish to use them in conjunction with stock skids, or just add them one at a time.

Thanks and feel free to contact us with any further questions!

The white Raptor pictured above belongs to us! Having personally driven that truck through the desert in Arizona, open spaces in Texas and all over the mountains in Colorado, I can attest that the RCI skid plates have protected the truck from lots of potential damage. Not only are the RCI skid plates a nice esthetic upgrade, they are built for superior protection of your trucks under carriage. If you're doing anything beyond getting groceries in your truck, you should be considering adding an aftermarket set of skid plates. Check out RCI's website for more info!

Also, just a heads up but we now sell a "Raptor" specific ultra heavy duty front skid plate which is currently available exclusively through Crown Offroad.

These provide much better strength and higher ground clearance than the OEM front plate and includes the secondary cross-member skid plate, OR you can buy the secondary skid independently for use with aftermarket bumpers, or if you are keeping the stock front plate and want a seamless connection to the rest of the RCI skid plates.

The white ford raptor shown looks like it has part of the old OE skid plate incorporated right underneath the factory bumper. Is this a custom fabrication or does the RCI aftermarket skid plate come with this? I have a 14 raptor and I like the look of the aftermarket skid plate with the stock bumper. Please clarify when you get the chance.

Thanks!
