You don't need a skid plate (under the truck). You need a new aftermarket bumper. They aren't cheap but it will keep you from mangling the front of your new truck.

Like Aubrey said, our trucks dont really have a need for a skid plate in the front like on a IFS truck. Transmission and transfer case protection is good. Get a transmission skid plate off a 2000-2001 Off-Road edition Ram.
