Toyota OEM Rear Differential Skid plate
- Thread starter gvan1998

The GX has a larger diff than the LC. In my North East wheeling and grinding over rocks at times, the rear diff from the factory is well suited to the task. The skid will actually reduce clearance. Under a hard pin against the skid it will likely rotate the plate and cause more issues.
Disclaimer: I have not gotten up close & personal with the GX550 rear differential yet. But….it should take a year and a day to damage a modern diff. You have to really hit a diff nowadays to cause a crack, leak, or dent that interferes with the differential’s job. If I’m wrong, please correct me!
