These are identical skid plates to what fits on the 2024 Tacoma. I have both. The Tacoma part number for the front skid says "trailhunter" on it, but is I think almost identical. The cost I paid was $330 for the front and $270 for the rear, including shipping. On the TRD OR, it bolts to the front crossmember so if you have an SR5 or lower trim, these won't work because you don't have a crossmember from the factory. You have 6 of the captive nut skid plate bolts already, but I think you'll need at least 2 others for the rear skid. These bolts cost about $2 each. Install is trivial. The design is brilliant. Put in two of the skid bolts loosely, then slide the plate over. The two notched holes in the plate will hold it up while you position it and hand thread the other 4 bolts in place. Removal for an oil change is just the opposite. Unscrew the 4 bolts, leave the other two with the notches in place but backed out slightly. Slide the plate off. Takes at most about 5 minutes to remove and it's not so heavy you can't do it entirely by yourself. Torque is around 20-22ft lbs. Somewhere in that range. As far as the "sealed transmission" you do in fact need to service the transmission if you want it to last. But removal of the plate to access the transmission and transfer case is trivial. Thanks for showing how these attach and interact with each other. It was very helpful. The parts and accessory catalog isn't very helpful, and the stock skid "plate" on the Tacoma is basically a piece of plastic.
I'm glad the land cruiser first edition gets a proper skid plate. Seems like that's the reason why so many of those land cruisers get bought with the skid plate because the installation cost is just $10.50 😂
Thanks for doing these videos, it is very helpful. Do you guys sell the rear diff plate that we've seen for the Tacoma, and has been listed for the LC but without an accurate Part Number? I'd like to order one, but no one seems to know any details, nor whether the Tacoma version is the same as that for the LC. Thanks for any info!
@ Ed Martin Toyota Q) Can the rear Diff. Skid Plate for the 2024 Tacoma (Trailhunter) fit on the Land Cruiser? Can you kindly check and confirm please. Appreciate it.
@@edmartintoyota8599thanks for the reply. Would it be possible for you folks to try it out and confirm, please? I will wait for that. I believe this is the toyota part number for the Tacoma Trailhunter rear differential skid plate: PT228-35245 Can u confirm the part number ?
Thanks for doing these brief little educational parts videos! Can't wait to learn more from future ones!
My pleasure
You make great content. Keep it up. Once again, I wish I had found you before I bought an hour east of you.
Thank you, finally a dealership that takes the time to explain with video the cars they sell. Great job!
Thanks for watching!
@@weruncompanies thanks. Much appreciated

We also recommend servicing the transmission.

Soo is there transfer case skid plate?
Will it fit the standard package?
@@tenillerenzfernandez7434 yes
Great video. What are the Toyota Part Numbers for these two skid plates?
pt22835241 and pt22860242
I have link to buy them in the video notes.
Appreciate it @@edmartintoyota8599
For a complete set, do we need PT228-35244 as well?
No, I think PT228-35244 is only for a Tacoma. Am I wrong on that?

We can't confirm. Probably yes, but wouldn't know for sure till we actually did it.
