3rd Gen 4Runner / Hilux Surf Gas Tank Skid Plate Kit

This is a gas tank skid plate DIY weld-together kit for the 3rd generation (1996-2002) Toyota 4Runner. The 3rd gen 4runner has a notouriously vulnerable gas tank that hangs down low in front of the rear axle. After enough off road use, it's normal to see reduced fuel capacity and a gas gauge that no longer functions properly or at all. Not to mention the driveshaft interference issue where the driveshaft attempts to rip the skid plate off on trucks with 3" of lift. This skid plate solves all of these issues. The 3/16" steel or optional 1/4" aluminum construction makes this skid plate nearly indestructible while the inner profile has been shaped to provide maximum driveshaft clearance. Additionally, all of the mounting holes are slotted, allowing the skid plate to be installed and then slid as far away from the driveshaft as possible to further increase clearance.
