Default tank swap out and skid plates?

i was wondering how hard it would be to drop my stock fuel tank for a newer oem 05 f350 tank?
i was draining the oil in my truck the other day and noticed that underneath has no protection at all where do i find or do they make skid plates for a 2001 f250 and how much would they cost i need one for my underside.

also where do i find a key for a spare tire holder i bought my truck and i cant find the damn key for the spare tire holder

thanks

I don't know about the skid plates but you can get the key for the spare from the ford dealer. My boss had the same problem and I called the dealer. They told me to bring the truck in and they would take their string of test keys and match it for the replacement.
