Default Skid Plates

I have an 18 F150 FX4 5.0L

Anyone know if there is a Plastic or lite steel piece I can use under Trans?
And up front under the Oil filter.

I don't really need 1/4 inch aluminum. But if I have to go that way I will.

Just need something for road debris, rocks stuff like that.

The stock Ford metal trans skid is pretty thin steel. You'll find part numbers for it around here somewhere.

I have C/S ones. Wish I would’ve spent the few extra dollars on the aluminum ones.

Factory Raptor skid plates. Protect your cats from theft too. Someone already posted Ford part numbers on this thread. I put them on my '16 to replace the "diaper". Most economical way to go.

Some folks run into this issue with the front u-clip holes not in the frame. I have my raptor skid plate on now using the rear mounts and front mounts that were there for the diaper - I'm considering M10 SS riv nuts for the middle mounts while monitoring how the skid plate does with how its mounted now...
