Cali Raised LED Complete Skid Plate Collection — Full Underbody Armor for 2010-2024 Toyota 4Runner
The 5th Gen Toyota 4Runner is a legend on the trail, but its most vital components—the oil pan, transmission, and transfer case—are surprisingly vulnerable from the factory. The Cali Raised LED Complete Skid Plate Collection is a heavy-duty, 3/16" steel fortress for your rig’s underbelly. This isn't just a single plate; it is a fully integrated armor system that provides edge-to-edge protection from the front crossmember all the way back to the transfer case crossmember. If you plan on tackling technical rock gardens or unpredictable overland trails, this collection is your best insurance policy against a trail-ending puncture.
Proudly made in the USA, every plate in this collection is laser-cut and CNC-bent for a precision fit that maximizes ground clearance. Unlike generic armor that can be bulky and heavy, Cali Raised LED has engineered these plates to hug the chassis of the 4Runner, ensuring that you don't sacrifice your approach or break-over angles. Whether you are a weekend warrior or a full-time explorer, this kit transforms your 4Runner into a bulletproof off-road machine.
Three Stages of Tactical Protection
This collection includes the three most critical pieces of armor your 4Runner needs:
- Front Skid Plate: Replaces the flimsy factory guard to protect your radiator, steering rack, and front differential. It features a strategic oil filter access port, allowing you to perform routine maintenance without ever removing the armor.
- Transmission Skid Plate: Bridges the gap between the front and the rear, shielding the transmission pan and cooling lines from jagged rocks and stumps.
- Transfer Case Skid Plate: Provides a massive shield for the transfer case and includes a reinforced crossmember to ensure the armor stays rigid even under direct impact.
Maintenance-Friendly Engineering
One of the biggest complaints with aftermarket armor is the difficulty it adds to oil changes. Cali Raised LED solved this by integrating a dedicated oil filter access door and a drain plug port. This means you (or your mechanic) can service the vehicle in minutes rather than spending an hour wrestling with heavy steel plates. It’s the perfect blend of "hardcore protection" and "daily driver convenience."
Construction & Finish
Every plate in this collection is crafted from 3/16" American-sourced steel. This thickness is widely considered the "Goldilocks" of off-road armor—thick enough to withstand a high-centered impact on a rock, but light enough to keep your 4Runner from feeling sluggish. You have the choice of a Raw Steel finish (perfect for custom painting) or a high-durability Black Powder Coat that provides a multi-stage barrier against road salt, moisture, and rust.

Who is the Cali Raised Skid Plate Collection For?
The Technical Trail Rider: If your idea of a good weekend involves big rocks and "spotter-required" obstacles, the 3/16" steel protection is non-negotiable.
The Long-Distance Overlander: When you are 100 miles from the nearest paved road, a punctured transmission pan is a survival situation. This kit ensures you make it back home.
The Practical Owner: This is for the person who wants maximum protection but still wants to change their own oil without needing a shop lift and a second set of hands to drop heavy plates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work with 4Runners equipped with KDSS?
Yes. Cali Raised LED offers a specific version of the Front Skid Plate designed to clear the larger KDSS sway bars. Be sure to select the "KDSS" option when ordering.
Will this work with my aftermarket bumper?
In most cases, yes. This skid plate collection is designed to integrate with the factory bumper and the majority of "lo-pro" and full-width aftermarket bumpers on the market.
Do I need to drill any holes for installation?
No. This collection is 100% bolt-on. It utilizes existing factory mounting points on your 4Runner’s frame for a simple, one-person installation.
