    Happy New Year everyone! Question, I have a 2017 SR ACLB. I'm planning on adding sliders and a rear bumper (unsure if I want to dip my toes into the high clearance world just yet) and I see sometimes that some manufacturers say their products are DCSB V6 Only, or Tow package required, etc.

    Any other SR or possibly SR5 people out there run into issues with fitment?

    While were on topic, any info regarding skidplates would be great too. One thing I can add is, I mounted a TRD Pro skid and CBI front bumper to my truck, no issues.

    I don't have any input on your question - but totally separately - do you have the 4 cylinder? Your set up looks awesome. I have 2.7 AC SR and have wanted to get it a bit higher, but am worried about compromising power/mpg

    Yep! 2017 2.7 5-speed manual 4x4, the best combo! hah Up front I'm running Bilstein 6112's set at the 3rd and 4th perches, rear has a Deaver add-a-leaf and 5100 shocks. Other supporting mods include Timbren active off-road bumpstops with a rear U-Bolt flip kit for better under axle clearance and JBA high-caster front upper control arms.

    As far as lifting it/MPG concerns, as long as you don't get too wild with lift and tire selection, it shouldn't make toooooo much of a difference. If you stay with a standard load tire and avoid heavy 10ply LT tires and stay at or under 265/75/16, you should be ok.
    I also have the LTE Header and an aFe dry drop-in air filter as far as "performance" mods

    CBI states on their website that their sliders do NOT fit 4 cylinder trucks. Boo.

    So the TRD Pro skid plate fits on an SR??? My 2020 only has one dinky skid plate upfront and not 2 like all the youtube videos showing the install of the TRD skid plate. My local dealer website says it will fit but another site says TRD skip plate is only compatible with off road or pro models.

    Should be the same as my 17, but yeah, I ordered a TRD Pro one back when they had that wild 40% off sale. Mounted up no issues.
