Heavy-Duty 1/4" Aluminum Protection. 100% Bolt-On Installation. Precision Laser-Cut Fit.
Ultimate Underbody Armor for Your RAV4The Asfir 4x4 Engine & Transmission Skid Plate is engineered to provide uncompromising protection for the most vulnerable components of your Toyota RAV4. Whether you are navigating rocky trails in a classic 2006 model or overlanding in the latest RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid, this skid plate ensures your oil pan and transmission remain safe from impact.
Made from high-grade 6mm (1/4") aluminum, this armor offers the perfect balance between extreme durability and weight savings. Unlike heavy steel plates, Asfir’s aluminum design won't sag your suspension or rust over time, making it the premier choice for serious adventurers.
The Problem & The Solution:The Pain: The factory plastic "splash guards" offer zero protection against rocks, and one unlucky hit to the oil pan can lead to a multi-thousand dollar engine replacement.
The Asfir Solution: We replace flimsy plastic with 1/4" laser-cut aluminum that uses a 100% Bolt-On design to existing chassis points for maximum structural integrity.
Key Features: Asfir Underbody Armor
The skid plate utilizes a 100% bolt-on assembly, mounting directly to the factory chassis points with zero vehicle modification.
Thick enough to slide over rocks, yet lightweight enough to maintain your RAV4’s fuel efficiency and handling characteristics.
Not a "universal" fit. This plate is precision laser-cut specifically for the RAV4 and RAV4 Plug-In chassis for a perfect contour.
Strategically placed air vents ensure your engine and transmission stay cool even during slow-speed technical climbs.
All brackets and assembly hardware are zinc-coated to prevent corrosion and ensure long-term serviceability.
Integrated drain holes allow dirt, mud, and water to escape, preventing debris buildup against your drivetrain.
Plug-In models feature reinforced stiffening ribs for extra strength when protecting the high-voltage hybrid components.
The slim-profile design hugs the chassis closely, ensuring you maintain maximum ground clearance for the trail.
Tested in the World's Harshest TerrainAsfir 4x4 has been at the forefront of off-road protection for decades. This skid plate has been rigorously tested on both 2.5L Gas and RAV4 Plug-In 4x4 models to ensure it withstands the vibration of washboard roads and the impact of trail obstacles.
6mm Laser-Cut Aluminum 22 - 30 lbs Lightweight Armor 100% Bolt-On Fit"Installed this on my 2023 RAV4 Prime. The fit was perfect and it didn't add the crazy weight that steel plates do. I feel much more confident taking the 'long way' home now. The air vents are a nice touch—I haven't seen any change in operating temps even on hot summer climbs."
- Mark S., RAV4 Adventure Enthusiast Stop Risking Your DrivetrainDid you know? Most RAV4 models come with a plastic dust cover that shatters upon the first impact. A punctured transmission pan can leave you stranded in the wilderness. Investing in aluminum armor is cheap insurance compared to a recovery bill and mechanical repairs.

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
