    Hey guys, I ordered a new skid plate for my 2020 SR5 and each video I watched on replacing it had two separate skid plates. Mine only has one and the plate I got seems extra. Would a 2020 4Runner TRD Pro Skid Plate fit on my Tacoma? It looks to be the same size as the stock one.

    The Pro skid for the Tacoma will fit fine on your SR5.

    The Tacoma off-road has 2 skids where as your SR5 has one. The Pro skid will take the place of both.

    Ok, cool but if I didn’t want to put the Tacoma TRD Pro one on would the 4Runner plate work?

    Probably not, bolt holes look like they are in a different place and it looks like it might block access to the oil filter.

    Why not use the Tacoma one you already bought?

    I ordered it and it wasn’t OEM TRD Pro and the lugs were different sizes than the ones I took off. I’m returning it and I’m looking for something different.

    I paid $325 for the one I got and it wasn’t what I expected. I’ve been trying to find one for around that price but I haven’t had any luck.

    Post a link to what you ordered?

    The Pro skid comes with the correct size bolts preinstalled in the skid plate. You remove your factory SR5 skid plate, and 4 extra bolts on the 2 frame braces and it bolts right up.

    I removed the 4 12mm bolts holding the stock plate and the 4 17mm that would be replaced by the new ones and they weren’t right. The threads had spacers which didn’t look right considering what I’ve watched and took off.

    That looks similar to what I bought. The bolts have the same spacers.

    The OEM Toyota skid has spacers too. You just bought one of the knockoff skids off eBay.

    It should still work. If you want to spend the money to buy a real one get one from Toyota. They are as low $340 plus free shipping with the current Toyota code.

    If you just want red letters you can buy stickon red letters from various venders on Amazon and eBay that fit in the embossed letters.

    I noticed that once it was delivered and looked at the listing but the pictures deceived me a bit. They were pre-installed but blurred out. The seller didn’t tell me that until I generated the return. Thought it was factory so that’s my fault.

    One left now - thanks for the link. I was waiting to find a sale on an OEM TRD skid plate, at this price I couldn't pass it up. I'm going to get it powder coated/Line-X'd anyways so the open box thing of it might have scratches doesn't bother me.
