    Last year, I had a lift installed. Everything was good when complete. Now though, I can see my starter. Im missing a guard/shield/cover, not sure what to call it. Just spent 15 min on a Toyota parts website and nada. What’s that called? Anyone?

    @Bishop84 Thank you very much. :bowdown: Now to compare. I’m not complaining about the stock ones, that was there 16 years before it was disturbed.

    The stock ones fall off because of the stupid shit fasteners, if you look at your other ones they are likely hanging on by a thread.

    The stock ones are like 40$ on Amazon so there's no real comparison, but if you offroad hard its worth it.

    My 3rd gen had similar to 2nd gen aprons and there was tons of mud packed under my exhaust.

    Juist thought I'd share, it's an upgrade and we like to ponder these things!

    Oh, I’m not complaining. I’m always one for an upgrade, just ask my paychecks. :rofl: I’m seeing that the upgraded one you linked in a helluva deal. Now to see if there’s shipping to Canada.:annoyed:

    Thanks again to @Bishop84 . Not only do I know what I’m looking for, I know where to look. Found a set of 4 on Amazon from gear tech customs. Half price and better shipping. SWEET!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::spending:
