This is a \"No Drill\" installation designed for basic hand tools. However, due to the weight and size of the plate, having a second person or a floor jack to hold the plate in place during bolting is highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"RIVAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49793566048533,"sku":"2333.9515.2.6","price":399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/6167\/7077\/files\/RIVAL_gas_tank_skid_plate_installed_under_Toyota_Land_Cruiser.webp?v=1772615163","url":"https:\/\/extrailauto.com\/products\/rival-aluminum-gas-tank-skid-plate-2007-2021-lc-200-2008-2021-lx570","provider":"ExtrailAuto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
