2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Armor & Skid Plates

The difference between a Frontier that pushes into real terrain and one that picks careful lines to protect the oil pan and transfer case is a good set of 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Armor & Skid Plates. Factory skid protection on the second-gen was designed to meet regulatory minimums rather than absorb actual trail impacts.

 

Full-length skid plate systems that cover the oil pan, transfer case, and fuel tank in a single connected design spread impact loads across a larger area rather than concentrating force at individual mounting points. Armor thickness matters in high-stress zones — quarter-inch steel and eighth-inch aluminum are the realistic starting points for anything beyond light trail use.

 

Protecting the underside of the second-gen Frontier through real terrain is what 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Armor & Skid Plates are built for. Front bumper options that extend the armor to the front end are at 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Front Bumpers, the full exterior accessories catalog is at 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Exterior Accesories & Parts, and the full bumpers category is at 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier Bumpers.
