I have ordered the entire undercarriage Rival system. I have a lowered Ford Maverick XLT AWD Hybrid. It handles completely flat like a performance car which was my goal. Because it is a hybrid it has a lot of vulnerable components underneath the truck protected by thin cheap fiberboard. Because it is lowered these parts are more at risk. Rival’s durable components were the answer I was looking for. I currently have the engine and transmission front plate and I am happily waiting for the rest on back order! Sept 30th cannot come soon enough! I cannot wait to get them and protect my valued investment! These amazing Rival aluminum plates are a complete home run!

RIVAL Aluminum Engine Skid Plate 2022-2024 Ford Maverick EcoBoost 2022-2026 Ford Maverick Hybrid
Easy install. Surprisingly light for how sturdy the skid-plate seems. This item is the proper choice for a Ranger owner with the FX4 package who intends to keep the factory steel engine-skid-plate.

Fits great, all mounting points lined up just like they are supposed to.
RIVAL Aluminum Engine Skid Plate 2025-2026 Subaru Forester AWD except Wilderness except Hybrid
Installed without problems and it will protect the under carriage a lot better than the stock plastic covers. I am considering one for the transmission. Thanks for a great product.
So this modification I had to pull out a second credit card because I wanted all of their skid plates. After I ordered, I was told that the front clip wasn’t available. It was back ordered. I don’t know why, but I called them and said I’ll just cancel that order and re-order it when it’s available I should’ve left it alone. Anyways, I received all five skid plates and proceeded to install them on a hot Saturday morning in my garage. Of course I throw down a moving blanket for a little bit of cushion and I drove the front of the truck up on some two by eights to give me a little chest room to remove the factory crap and install these quality plates was probably two hours you might notice in the video. I took a red paint marker and marked One Direction of the mounting bolt washer and plate just as an identifier if something should come loose cause honestly I didn’t torque them on. I use the half-inch ratchet and just put some pressure on it no Loctite unfortunately but I will check Next oil change. I love the plates. They look awesome under the truck. I know I’ve got protection for gas tank transfer case transmission and engine. I will watch for the radiator portion to become available and get that ASAP. Buy once cry once.
This thing is awesome. It fit like a glove. 10 minutes and I was done. I can’t wait for the catalytic converter cover to be in stock. Only thing I am going to change is the the hex head bolts to a security head bolt. I don’t want anyone stealing this sweet skid plate.
Easy installation and easy access to oil drain plug and filter.
Haven't bashed it yet but it looks good! Easy to install. Heavy duty. Can't complain.
Installation couldn't be easier. Very happy with this product. Looking forward to doing more business with you.

So glad that Rival made an engine skid plate for the AWD Maverick Hybrid! I installed this skid plate - they include the perfect hardware and good instructions - and now my oil changes will no longer involve dropping the cheap-y felt splash guard every time. The removable plate for the drain plug access is perfectly positioned for a normal oil change or for installing a Fumoto valve, Stahlbus valve, or something similar. Buy Rival and you won't be disappointed.
Love this skid plate to protect the catalytic converter. I don't do much offroading other than groomed dirt roads, but in Colorodo (especially Denver) this kind of protection becomes of must against Cat Theft. It's real. We lost a $2k Cat a couple of years ago and I started putting Cat protection on all vehicles that had adequate ground clearance and Cats than hung down in easy view for thieves to steal. My Maverick is totally secure thanks to Rival's skid plate!!

Works well. Stands out.

It's Great because I like how small the branding is. However, I would prefer no brand logo. Very similar the the OEM TRD pro skid plate. My only two descrepancies are the amount of washers need for each bolt. Seems like a lot. My second discrepancy is the cost. The product is already decently priced. However, I know where the company sources it's ore from. The cost could still be much less, and RIVAL would still make much profit.

Great skid plate! Access panels make oil changes easy too. And it looks great!

looks great, fits well , oil drain hole should be 1 to 2 inches larger
RIVAL Aluminum Engine Skid Plate 2007-2021 Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Lexus LX570
The quality is great. It is relatively easy to instal with no car modifications needed. The only thing is that it takes the clearance of the car down with couple of inches compared to the oem skid plates. It is not critical though. I will buy it again if I need it. It is great product.

Thick and rugged, the way it is suppose to be.
RIVAL Aluminum Engine Skid Plate 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma 3Gen 4WD including KDSS
The product is very good. The attaching bolts were about a 1/4 inch too short, additional length was needed to pull the plate into position. This is likely due to minor spring back in the skid plate due to pressing (stamping) the material into shape. Otherwise the skid plate is excellent.
Works just as advertised. Rival has also been very responsive to a few questions I have had.
Love knowing my Rival skid plate are giving my GX550 OT+ the best protection possible when we're off road. Peace of mind and they look great
Fits perfectly. Hated the factory steel that came on this truck with the flimsy little bolts that stripped out.
Installed easily with front of vehicle on ramps. Riv-nuts posed no difficulty, all the holes lined up, and oil filter & drain access look good. I drive Forest Service roads often, have rubbed the front end a few times so sure appreciate the added protection.
Fantastic fit and finish. I almost hate to scratch them up, but I am looking forward to doing just that.
Very satisfied with my rival skid plate, very easy to mount and no longer have to remove the entire skid plate because of the easy access oil plug hole and filter hole...Would highly recommend to all the Maverick owners out there...Ford should have come up with this concept but to bad their loss
Great for traveling in 2 track roads while hunting and fishing
1. Perfect product! Though easy to install, we had a professional (with a full lift, easier access, and more experience) to install ours. He shares our enthusiasm about the quality of the Rival 4x4 product. 2. Separately, garage-art company ChromeDomz (chromedomz.com) designed and manufactured a great 3ft x 5ft domed metal mirrored wall art piece with the Rival 4x4 logo. Photo attached. We recommend it for other customers.
It's outta sight and outta mind which is exactly the way it should be
Were the only company that made a bumper with winch that fit my truck. Provided company that would install.
RIVAL Front Aluminum Bumper 2024-2026 Ford Ranger Raptor U.S. with Winch Mount and Recovery Points
I love the peace of mind with an aluminum skid plate under the truck vs the flimsy plastic one the truck comes with from the factory. I live on a gravel road and I see plenty of debris on the roads I travel to get to work. Thankful for the extra protection this plate provides. Nice product and was simple to install after reading the instructions.
It fits nicely with the matching engine skid plate. Install was easy, but I couldn't use the shorter bolts the instructions said to use where the two plates met. I would recommend requesting 2 more of the longer size bots if adding this to an existing engine skid plate. I used the longer bolts that were supposed to be for the back side I just used the rear bolts for the front and then used a smaller spacer in the rear. It still gave enough clearance.
Fit very well in n 2025 hybrid, and thicker than I thought, well made
