You are correct. Found out when it arrived at home...This is the wrong transfer skid. Need the one that ends in 41, not 44. 41 is shorter and fits the Taco only.

Mine had had a hardware bag in it.Should I have received a hardware bag?
I may make mine available. I'm holding off until I can make the design to, hopefully, work with the GX.Kind of an aside for this thread, but since we got on the Tacoma side of things, does anyone know if the burlier ~1/4" aluminum '24 Tacoma TRD Pro (front) skid will work on the LC?
I was able to take the u-bolts from the oem old plastic skid. The small access panel had 3x u-nuts. Consequently, I needed to use m8 bolts from these locations to mount the trim piece to the new steel skid plate, instead of the spec’d m6 + u-nuts. Its over built now but works.Yes a hardware bag with black bolts that are smaller than those that came out of the stock vehicle (I did not use any of them), and the two u-nuts for the trim piece. Bummer, but all you really need is the slide-on u-nuts.
I do. I have $6000 worth of damage from off-roading with the mid level (LC) "skid plates." They don't protect anything. The impact driving on the dunes destroyed my radiator and AC compressor and I haven't had my car for 1 month. Spend the cash to order the Toyota steel ones from the FI trim. I didn't know the difference but. now I do..I understand that the First Edition has a different skid plate than other trims. Anyone have any idea what the difference might be?
I don’t think the upgraded skid plate would have prevented your damage. Looking at the radiator placement this rig will need a custom radiator plate that is somehow tied into the frame (possibly at the tow hooks). The accountants definitely won the debate with the engineers on the radiator placement.I do. I have $6000 worth of damage from off-roading with the mid level (LC) "skid plates."

This is my first off-road rig so I’m a total newb. I’m sure you’re right but I feel like the better skid would have helped? In any case I’m getting that and will go to 17” wheels with a bigger tire to hopefully helpI don’t think the upgraded skid plate would have prevented your damage.
