    Greetings Toyota lovers,

    Ryno All Terrain Products is now prepared to sell a mass amount of skid plates for 1st gen Tacomas and 3rd gen 4Runners. This group buy will be open for 2 weeks. At the end of 2 weeks, I take a $100 deposit and the orders will get produced. When they are produced (a week or 2), I will contact you for shipping info and full payment. Will ship when I receive payment.

    Details:
    3/16" high yield strength A36 steel plate
    50 pounds a piece
    Factory mounting holes
    Cutout for engine oil drain plug
    Replaces factory skid plates
    Not painted - maybe upon request (don't know pricing)
    I have no claim to durability but it's the same thickness as other vendors
    Stainless hardware is included

    *Will need spacers or a stack of washers and longer bolts for a diff drop like all other vendors. Not provided*

    The price is $225 plus shipping for each piece. If you want just an IFS skid with extra steel to cover the steering rack, $25 extra. $425 for a set.

    I will take a $100 deposit before manufacturing and ship the skid when I receive full payment.

    Shipping will be fedex ground. I get a 15% discount so I pass that savings onto you. PM me if you want shipping estimates. Pay by paypal, cash, check.

    For rough shipping cost estimates on a set:
    Colorado: $55
    California: $70
    Massachusetts: $65
    Florida: $65
    Texas: $55
    Kentucky: $55


    I have 100% positive selling feedback on ebay so rest assured you will get your skid. Dirtcheapsales

    I will offer 2 main designs on the IFS skid plate. No cutout and TRD cut out. If you want your own logo, I can make it for extra. You also have 2 options for transmission skid plates. See the pictures below.

    You know you want one!

    Email me at fasttacoma@gmail.com if you don't have an acct here but want skids.

    Lol yes. I'll have a new one cut tomorrow. Most people will probably order without a cutout anyway.

    Thanks. This summer I might do a 2nd gen set...

    These skids go back to the transfer case. They don't fully cover the transfer case because it sits about 12" behind the transmission cross member and there's nothing to bolt to behind the transfer. If you look at the skid row transfer case, it bolts to the frame. That's about the only way to make one that has decent strength.

    Lol thanks. You will get a set no matter if I sell 1 or 100. I'm just doing this this because I already put in the design time and have a working product, so it doesn't take much more to help some people save money.

    If it does fit the 3rd gens it's 96-02. I'll let someone else be a guinea pig though lol, plus I'm out of $$ for the runner at the moment.

    Looks like a great product- so 2 wks from the 14th is your deadline for commitment? I'm definitely interested.

    I'm waiting on my tax return, which should come in like 3-6wks; 100 bucks is no problem now though.

    I'm also still doing research on my next upgrade. Debating, new leaf pack, oba, snorkel/ relocate diff breathers, or skids.

    My stock skids are torn up. Do these rust if not painted? Looks like you don't have to remove them for oil changes either? Also, do you have any photos of them in use/ worn at all?

    They're the same thickness you say as others- what kind of abuse can they take? Thanks in advance!

    Are you able to do a similar to Skid Row's transfer case skid- from frame to frame? I'd like to purchase through you, but make sure everything I can protect, I do.

    The 29th is the day I will take deposits so I can get these made.

    These skids will rust if they aren't painted. They are just steel, bare steel rusts. I put the bare skids on my truck just for pictures and took them off shortly after. I haven't painted mine yet so I don't have them on my truck to test, and I don't have a place around here to test them anyway. People with budbuilt or skid row beat the crap out of theirs and the skids hold up great. Same thickness steel as these. Same thickness as a plate bumper too.

    I don't offer a transfer skid that bolts like skid row. I don't have the time to engineer and custom fab one. A lot of work goes into one of those.
