Tacoma Armor Discussion: Skid Plates and Oil Change Access

I recently got this new tire repair tool for my truck 2 days ago, to complement my standard kit. It’s actually great for fixing sidewall damage out on the trail and can hold up for hundreds of miles. Fingers crossed I never need to test it, but thought I’d share anyway.

I recently added some factory armor to the front and differential of my Tacoma. I'm still waiting for the sliders to arrive and mulling over whether to get the transfer case skid plate available for the Trailhunter model.

One thing caught my eye: the new TRD front skid plate no longer has an access point for oil changes. I’m guessing this is because the oil filter’s been relocated, which I'm still yet to confirm. I can't lie, this really stood out compared to older plates I’ve checked out.
