Aerospace-Grade 6mm Aluminum. No-Drill Installation. Desert-Proven Protection.
Armor That Matches the 200-Series LegacyThe Toyota Land Cruiser 200 and Lexus LX 570 are pinnacle off-road machines, yet their factory protection is surprisingly fragile. Most models rely on thin plastic splash guards that offer zero defense against jagged rocks, stumps, or high-centering events. One misplaced stone can lead to a punctured oil pan or a destroyed radiator.
The ASFIR 4X4 Front Skid Plate is engineered to bridge this gap. Crafted from 1/4" (6mm) laser-cut aluminum, this plate provides massive impact resistance without the heavy weight of steel. It is the ultimate insurance policy for your engine and cooling system.
Why ASFIR Protection:The Pain: Factory guards are "splash only." A trail impact on the 200-series oil pan can result in a $4,000+ engine repair and a ruined expedition.
The ASFIR Solution: We use Reinforced Stiffening Ribs and a 100% Bolt-On design to absorb impacts, keeping your drivetrain safe while preserving critical ground clearance.
Key Features: ASFIR Front Armor
Engineered for a 100% bolt-on installation using factory mounting points. Maintains your vehicle's integrity and resale value.
High-strength aluminum alloy provides the perfect balance of massive protection and lightweight performance (only 33 lbs).
Integrated stiffening ribs ensure the plate maintains its shape even under heavy impact or high-centering loads.
Precision laser cutting ensures the plate hugs the chassis, protecting components without sacrificing valuable clearance.
Strategically placed slots reduce heat buildup, while drain holes allow for the quick release of dirt, water, and debris.
Equipped with zinc-coated steel brackets to withstand salt, mud, and road grime for lifelong durability.
Tested in the World's Harshest DesertsWe don't cut corners. ASFIR plates are proudly made in Israel and tested in the extreme conditions of the Negev Desert. The aluminum construction ensures your underbody armor will never rust, even if you drive in coastal regions or on salted winter roads.

"The fitment on my 2018 LX 570 was perfect. I was tired of pulling sticks and mud out of the cheap plastic factory guards. This ASFIR plate is built like a tank. It's light enough for one person to install but feels like it could stop a boulder. The ventilation holes are a great touch—no engine temp issues even in Arizona heat."

The loss is negligible. ASFIR plates are precision-bent to follow the contours of the LC200/LX570 chassis. In many cases, it creates a "skid surface" that allows you to glide over obstacles rather than catching them on chassis cross-members.
The plate includes drainage holes that align with some vehicle ports; however, due to the total coverage provided for the radiator and oil pan, removal of the plate is recommended for a completely mess-free oil change. Because it is 100% bolt-on, removal takes only a few minutes.
6mm (1/4") aluminum offers a better strength-to-weight ratio than standard steel plates. Aluminum has a better ability to absorb impact by deforming slightly and then being reshaped, whereas steel transmits more vibration to the frame. Plus, aluminum will never rust.
No. The ASFIR design features specific ventilation openings that maintain airflow to your radiator and front differential, ensuring factory cooling efficiency even in harsh environments.
Yes. This plate was specifically designed to clear the components of both the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) found on Toyota models and the Adjustable Height Control (AHC) found on Lexus models.

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
