Any 2020 Lariat owners out there?

[that408guy]

I am trying to figure out if the heat shield between the spare tire and exhaust has been deleted by Ford or if my vehicle's was left off by mistake (December 2020 build here).

Thanks for looking

My 21 Lariat Tremor has the heat shield.

You have an aftermarket exhaust.on your truck. Did you install it? If not the exhaust installer may have left it off.

Thanks for checking. Time to hunt that part down now.

My 2021 Lariat does not have one, but mine is a 2 wheel drive....maybe the shield is a 4 x 4 piece.

Thanks for checking. If I find out yours should have one I will let you know. I emailed my dealer.

My 2021 Lariat FX4 does not have anything there. My build date was late Dec 2020 (between Xmas and NY)

My 21’ Lariat FX4 has the heat shield. According to my sticker it rolled off assembly line on Dec.23rd, 2020.

thank you all. I have fx4 as well. Seems like they skimped on us.

Maybe time for a "Semi-Deleted" thread for those parts that some have and some don't. Apparently at the sole discretion of the num-nuts on the line who are building these trucks.
Maybe the person in charge of "Shield Install" was on a poop break...we will never know !!!

I may try to improvise one...got a few empty beer cans and a Bush Bean can I can piece together !!!
