6mm Aerospace Grade Aluminum. Zero Drilling. Essential Exhaust Armor.
Protect Your Lowest Point: The Exhaust ArmorOn the Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, and Lexus GX460, the exhaust crossover pipe is notoriously vulnerable. It sits low and is often the first thing to take a hit when crawling over rocks or logs. A single impact can crush the pipe, causing power loss, exhaust leaks, or a complete system failure.
The ASFIR 4x4 Exhaust Skid Plate is engineered from high-quality, laser-cut 1/4" (6mm) aluminum. It provides the heavy-duty shielding needed for off-road durability without the massive weight penalty of steel. Designed and manufactured in Israel, this plate is a critical addition to any serious underbody protection system.
Why ASFIR Protection:The Pain: The factory exhaust crossover is exposed and expensive to replace. One bad line on a trail can lead to a $1,500+ repair bill at the muffler shop.
The ASFIR Solution: A precision-fit, rib-reinforced aluminum shield that bolts directly to the chassis, allowing your vehicle to slide over obstacles safely.
Key Features: ASFIR Exhaust Protection
Constructed from premium laser-cut aluminum for a superior strength-to-weight ratio. Tougher than rocks, lighter than steel.
Designed for a 100% bolt-on assembly using factory mounting points. No drilling, welding, or cutting required.
Engineered with integrated stiffening and reinforcing ribs for added structural durability against hard impacts.
Integrated air vents allow for proper airflow to prevent heat build-up around the exhaust system.
At only 5 lbs (2.2 kg), this plate provides maximum protection without compromising your fuel economy or suspension.
Includes zinc-coated steel brackets and premium fasteners to ensure long-term corrosion resistance in muddy or salty environments.
Built-in drain holes allow for the easy clearing of mud, snow, and trail debris after your adventure.
Designed to follow the vehicle's chassis closely, minimizing ground clearance loss while shielding vital components.
Tested in the World's Harshest ConditionsWe don't just build armor; we test it. ASFIR 4x4 plates are battle-proven in the desert terrains of Israel. This exhaust plate is part of a complete protection system that ensures your Toyota or Lexus remains trail-capable and reliable.

"The exhaust pipe on my GX460 always made me nervous on rocky trails. The ASFIR plate was a 20-minute install and it fits like a glove. It's incredibly light but you can tell the aluminum is high quality. I've already taken a few scrapes on it and it saved my exhaust from a nasty dent. Highly recommend for peace of mind."

Precision engineered to fit the following 4WD models perfectly:
Lexus GX460 (2010-2023)Integration Note: This exhaust skid is designed to work seamlessly with other ASFIR underbody components as part of a complete protection set.
Yes, this plate fits perfectly on the Lexus GX460 petrol 4.6L V8 model (2010-2023) and shields the crossover pipe effectively.
No. The ASFIR design includes integrated air vents that allow heat to escape and cool air to flow around the exhaust system, preventing any thermal damage.
No drilling, welding, or cutting is required. This skid plate uses a 100% bolt-on assembly that utilizes existing mounting points on the vehicle chassis.
The total weight of the skid plate and hardware is only 5 lbs (2.2 kg), making it one of the lightest heavy-duty protection options on the market.
While designed for ASFIR's complete set, it generally fits with most aftermarket and factory plates. However, because it mounts to specific chassis points, it's best to verify clearance if you have custom long-travel suspension or non-standard frame modifications.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks
