Stock Skid Plates

Hey All,
Just got my FJ and it was missing the passenger side armrest (I guess this is a common prob and the dealership is giving me one for free) but that got me to thinking what else could be missing so I started to take a look around.

The website says we get an engine skid, transfer case skid and gas tank skid but I don't think I have all of those.

I have the engine skid for sure and there is a "skid plate" under the transfer case if you could call it that.

Definetely don't think there is a Gas Tank Skid except for a piece of black plastic that seems to be covering the gas tank.

I am missing something here? Does anyone have photos of their stock skid plates so that I can see what I am missing?

Also, with option package number 2 you are supposed to get aluminum shifters but I don't have those either, is that only for the Automatic?

Thanks,
John

Re: Stock Skid Plates

You weren't missing the passenger side armrest. It's an option.

Aluminum shifter for automatic - plastic over gas tank is skid plate...
