    Does anyone have a aux fuse panel , or can tag someone who does, for a Gen 3 TRD OR manual transmission?

    Mine is interfering hard on the A-trac / and controller (?), And didn't know if anyone had any suggestions or input.

    Also, it won't fit in upside down due to the plane of the plate and reservoir hose.

    I wanted to order the mid skid plate that works with the TRD pro plates but I don't like the idea of paying for it only to wait weeks before seeing it delivered. That is so last century!

    You do realize that just about every single company on here that makes skids has a wait for them because they’re built when they get paid for. Relentless, cbi, budbuilt, etc so good luck with that

    I don’t know for sure without comparing but it looks like you may have gotten the wrong panel:/

    In regards to being a wrong gen plate ? It has the reservoir cutout that the automatics don't have.


    But there's another 3rd gen MT OR which has the same issue. So I'm not sure if we both would have the wrong one.

    Yeah you could have gotten 2nd gen plates as opposed to third but I can’t confirm because I have a power tray:/

    Not sure it is because this person had the same issue, and another looks like he's just cool with it hitting the controller

    And it seems I just keep finding more where the plate looks like it's hitting the controller. Not looking good.

    Exact truck as mine.

    You saw my experience above but I ended up saying fuck it and picking up a Switch Pros with the SDHQ bracket under the hood. Had to file the back edge a little from where it was stamped out (didn't want it scratching the underhood paint) but otherwise, it's a million times better and a cleaner install with the MT.

    It's my understanding the Pelfrey bracket was designed by someone else and they just make them... that could be wrong but either way, I'm not about to have a bracket bouncing on the ABS/ATRAC controller going down the road.

    Well that's a bummer. I feel the same way about it bouncing in that. There's no way I can have wires on the edge of anything or that metal resting on the controller with the roads we hit.

    Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

    A search at the California Secretary of State records shows some changes from 2014 to 2018 for Pelfrey Off-Road Inc. Interested parties will need to draw their own conclusions about those changes. Note that there is a box for "no change" (not checked). As a result this should be viewed (IMO) as a pro-active required statement of change with regard to who the Directors of Pelfrey are/were at the time of the filing(s).

    Your 2018 link is showing up as a blank form for me, but I think I know what you’re getting at.

    Hmmm......just re-confirmed. Satin is the only listed Director now (April, 2018). And possibly the only share holder. Looking around the net, there appear to be "other" directly related developments. They are not public and I'm unable to verify them so I'll not repeat/post. I wish everyone, including the Pelfrey's, the best of luck.

    Until such time as Pelfrey returns to the forums to answer questions and respond to outstanding orders by member of TW/Tundras/4Runners.com, we are working to remove their vendor status and recommend members with outstanding orders seeking refunds to do so through whatever means they deem necessary
