Catalytic converter skid plates & theft deterrent

That's why I'm doing it. I'm covering shipping for everyone actually. Just wanna make sure we all get the right sizing on the first go round

 

count me in!!!

would these bolts also work for the DE front plate (which I purchased prior to Valhalla being available)??

If so, I’ll need bolts for that one as well....

**edit to include the following** (taken from a prior post)

the DE plates hardware included was four 3/8 - 16 x 1.25" bolts and some square nuts welded to some flat stock.

 

Kick their ass, take their wallet, ask them to call the cops on you so you have a reason to come after them in the future.

They must have been wondering why people are cleaning out their inventory all of a sudden

 

Do you have a link? Interested in the bolts and a key

 

Count me in also... I just placed an order for the front and rear plate with Classy63 last week. Let me know. Thanks

 

Amazon has spoiled everyone. Whenever I order from Ebay I get so pissed off when it doesn't show up the next day. Unless you order from Amazon then expect 10 days to get something if in stock. I ordered a wave runner seat. Guy shipped it two weeks ago Monday with FedEx just got it. you order a box of dog food from amazon it shows up the next day. Shipping these plates isn't like shipping shoes. They are big and heavy. Pretty sure if he invested in his own plate cutter, staffed up, you be looking at closer to twice the price to get your plates in 3 days vs 3 weeks.

 

We found the winner

 

Just got around to the install today...went super slick! Just loosened the rear bolts on TRD skid plate completely, slid her in and tightened her down. Thanks again Tyler...outstanding product design.

 

These plates already saved me $300-400. Yea now I go to strip clubs in bad part of town now that I know my cats are safe. Girls cheaper there

 

I bought my 15 crewmax used and the previous owner had some weird contraption made of rebar and steel plates welded around the cats. They also tacked the exhaust bolt nuts to the flanges. Took me an hour under the the truck with a grinder before I gave up trying to install the trd dual exhaust I picked up. Need to take to a place with a lift.

 

Get it all cleaned up, install the exhaust, and then put the cat plates on it.

 

Yea. I need to try again today. Sawzall will probably work better than the grinder.

 

Cool your jets man. We all knew that this is a ONE MAN operation and he has kept us all updated with posts about his main powder coater being down. I went out to see him and his operation and Tyler was pretty cool about it even though as a Social Worker I tend to question everything he answered every question I had man. I placed my order also in late March and haven't gotten mine either and I'm local man. (Not complaining Tyler just using that as an example.) I know he is working hard on getting everyone's order out and he has a system and following the list he has, so just have a little patience man. I'm sure Tyler will have your order to you as soon as possible. Just my 0.02 though.

 

Seems perfect for you to get refunded your money. A business is under no obligation to serve you. If you're not happy, get your money back and shop elsewhere.

You had a case at first. First post was benign and seemed apt to question. Then you started to tell others how to run their enterprise, and that's where people started getting their hackles up.

 

Then as a vendor you also must realize and understand that "shit happens" and we must all make the best of it including the vendor himself/herself and "roll with the punches" The great Brue Lee said it best:

"Be Water, My Friend. Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle.
You put it into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

 

Free knife set promotion?

 

IT SLICES, IT DICES! IT EVEN MAKES JULLIENNE FRIES!

 

It was a one time oopsy... almost $20 knife...

 

Because of this thread, I made an account despite the fact I don't even have the Tundra yet lol My friend will be letting go his soon but not sure when. I spent a few hours reading all the pages and I really appreciate everyone's efforts ! So it seems like Tyler from Valhalla is pretty responsive and even has a website for ordering. He seems to have some security bolts ordered as well. Will the security screws be included as part of the kit or available for ordering on his website ? @Classy63

 

Are those the aluminum plates? Did they come that shiny or did you polish them up before installing?
Looks awesome! Just got my shipping notification, can't wait!

 

Put the @ in front of his name so that it will tag him to see the post. @Classy63

 

Thanks ! I thought I did lol

 

Ugh I didn't get notification.

 

Looks great. Was wondering if you reused the original bolts from the TRD PRO plate or if you used the new hardware provided?

 

I don’t have security bolts for sale, some people are building a mini group buy for some though

 

Contact @MoonRock2021 and see where he is at in the process. He was going to order some.

 

@OnespeedTRD --thats the standard 3/16" aluminum plate, glossy finish; went on super easy!
@Tho4x4 --YES used original TRD Pro plate bolts for the front (plenty of thread to fit the 3/16" plate and use original nuts); I like how the Pro plate is recessed for the bolts--criminals would have a difficult time cutting those bolts off I think (and a diff time sliding plate out once bolted down). The 3/16" plate seems plenty robust to me...
