Heavy-Duty 1/4" Aluminum Protection. 100% Bolt-On. No Drilling Required.
Precision-Engineered Armor for the 6th Gen 4RunnerProtect your Toyota 4Runner’s vulnerable transmission with ASFIR’s precision-engineered skid plate. Specifically designed for the 2025-current gas-powered models, this plate offers the perfect balance of lightweight performance and rugged durability.
Whether you are tackling rocky trails or navigating debris-filled backcountry roads, this skid plate ensures your transmission remains shielded without compromising ground clearance. ASFIR armor is tested in the harshest desert environments to ensure reliable off-road performance.
The Problem & The Solution:The Pain: The transmission is one of the most expensive components to repair if struck by a rock or stump. Most heavy steel plates add excessive weight, affecting fuel economy and suspension performance.
The ASFIR Solution: Our 1/4" (6mm) aluminum construction provides maximum impact resistance at a fraction of the weight (only 11 lbs), featuring built-in ventilation to keep your transmission cool under load.
Key Features: ASFIR Transmission Armor
Laser-cut from high-quality aluminum for maximum strength-to-weight ratio. Won't rust like traditional steel plates.
Quick installation with zero drilling or cutting required. Mounts directly to existing factory chassis points.
Engineered with slots to dissipate heat and drain holes to allow mud, water, and debris to escape easily.
Reinforced in high-stress areas to prevent bending or warping during heavy off-road impacts.
Includes zinc-coated steel mounting brackets and hardware for long-lasting reliability in salt and mud.
Designed specifically for the 2.4L Gas engine 4Runner to ensure zero clearance loss and a perfect profile.
At only 11 lbs, this skid plate provides elite protection without the heavy penalty on your MPG or front-end sag.
Trusted by off-roaders worldwide and manufactured to rigorous standards in Israel.
*Repair costs are estimates. Does not include rental car or lost adventure time.
Built for the Trail, Not the DrivewayUnlike universal "one-size-fits-all" plates, the ASFIR transmission skid plate is tailored to the 6th Generation 4Runner's chassis. The zinc-coated brackets ensure that while you're dragging over rocks, your mounting hardware isn't seizing up from rust.
11 lbs Total Weight 6 mm Aluminum Thickness Zinc-Coated Steel Brackets 100% Bolt-On Design
"The fitment on my 2025 4Runner was spot on. I was worried about heat buildup, but the ventilation slots are well-placed. Best part? It's light enough that I could install it by myself in about 20 minutes without a floor jack. Solid peace of mind for the transmission."

6mm aluminum provides excellent protection for a transmission plate while being much lighter. This helps maintain your 4Runner's factory handling and fuel economy, and unlike steel, it will not rust when the coating is scratched by rocks.
No. This specific model is engineered only for the Gas-powered 2.4L engine. Hybrid models have different underside configurations and mounting points.
This plate is designed specifically for the transmission area. Most engine oil service points are located forward of this plate under the engine skid, so it typically does not need to be removed for standard oil changes.
No drilling or cutting is required. The ASFIR skid plate is a 100% bolt-on system that utilizes existing factory holes in the chassis.

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
We get it. You've got a lot of choice when it comes to online retailers.
Here's why we think you should shop with us at ExtrailAuto.
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
