Only 1 week old; average of +7 pages per day.

 

That's right, I forgot about that lol

 

Yes. But that’s for the new frame and all it’s goodies.
The 4runner engine is for the spare frame. Which happens to have the 01 body on it.

 

That’s hot

 

Yeah, the photos on the website clearly show the skid plate covering the radiator. That and the item description clearly states as the first KEY FEATURE:
Protects front two cross-members, low hanging front differential, radiator, and oil pan

 

Since there are like 900 more pages in the last few hours and I don't really want to read all of them (how do y'all do it?!?)...

This is correct. The manual radiator just doesn't stick down as far, but is the same width as auto.

Yes, most others do. Here's my Relentless. But, I think what you've got is normal for RCI - their stuff is always a little different than everyone else. Sometimes better, sometimes not.

 

I don’t even attempt to read all the posts. I just look at my @s and respond to those. Lol

 

FML. Who wants to buy some scrap metal?

 

CC chargeback time

 

That looks to be the same width as my Budbilt, goes wide enough to just cover the lower cams. I agree I think the RCI is just made to be a skinny/narrow skid, but its odd that his appears to be even more narrow than it looks on their website. Unless there's some difference in 3rd gen T4Rs that's accounts for the discrepancy, I don't know if there is

 

Does look slightly wider in their photos; at least half covers the cams. I bet if you talk to them, you can probably return them (exchange or whatever). It would be interesting to know if the skid is the width (23") they say it is on their site. If it is, then it's also a bit on you.



If it is a bit on you, that totally sucks (I know, b/c I've had that happen to me before), but then it's important to just work with them the best you can, maybe eating the cost of shipping in a return situation or something. Just part of owning your own actions and being a good human at that point.

Just b/c I happened to see this comment... I'll step in where I may not be welcome.

CC charge backs are not for this. It's what returns are for. Frankly, it's charge backs for stuff like this that increases the price of both products and CCs for the rest of us. (not that I think @JasonLee is going to do that)

 

I said that a bit tongue in cheek. I'd also advocate for working with them as best as possible

 

Perfect. Carry on!

Like I said, not in here enough to really know the personalities. Sounds like not everyone is as shady as Zane.
