Put the 4R CarTrimHome TRD skid plate on to replace the factory skid plate that gets in the way during oil changes. I rattle canned the letters to match the blue overland symbol as well. I think it turned out pretty well. I also greased the spiders and slide yokes while I was underneath.

Any modifications required?

Hey Bergy24, here you go https://cartrimhome.com/Bumper-Skid-...NNER-2014-2021.

I only had to do two mods. 1.) The installation requires you to remove the rad supports in order to accommodate the skid plate. The skid plate then bolts from the frame to the rad frame providing the support. This step is detailed in the instructions provided. 2.) I removed the small plastic air dams attached to the front bumper. They just twist off and I am pretty surethey don't do much. They were getting in the way.

Changed the oil. Cannot for the life of me figure out why people complain about the factory skid plates being such a pain. An extra 2 minutes really isn't a lot to ask.
