    Multiple threads on this. Talons Garage for the quickest delivery. You will want a front and rear for full coverage.

    Really tough to beat the Talon’s Garage product when you factor in price, fast shipping, and they use a good design with 1/4” aluminum.

    The link you provided gives a 404 error.
    I live in DFW and haven't this place mentioned on the forum before. I'll definitely check them out if they treated you well. Never hurts to know another good place that is local

    Looks like it was a trailing character, try this one https://apexoff-road.com/products/d...theft-skid-plate-local-pick-up-only-frisco-tx or this one if you have a 22+ https://apexoff-road.com/products/a...eld-choose-local-pickup-or-shipping-fee-below

    So you are aware. I installed the Talon's Garage front and rear plates. Certainly easy to install but they work better as skid plates and not cat protectors. After installing mine, I was concerned about the amount of free space there was between the plate and the floor board. I could fit both arms and any power tool I wanted to cut and remove the cats. Contacted Talon's via email and v-mail a couple of times and never received a return call. So I designed and had fabricated my own solution. Feel a little better about cat protection now. Update: Just saw a reply to me from Talon's, on another post, that they do and can make a return plate if anyone is interested. Your choice, although I do not know what it looks like, but I would certainly consider it.

    I got mine from Miller CAT for $540.00 (pre-tax and free shipping): https://catshield.com/collections/toyota-tundra. Ordered and shipped same day. It's beefy as hell and the tamper-proof screws would definitely take a good amount of time to bypass IMO.

    FYI if you have a 4x4 OP the cat plates provide alot more protection with the transfer case in the way.

    Good to know for those with a four wheel drive. Mine is a two wheel. A razor edge would certainly make a substantial theft deterrent. I just hope it doesn't piss them off and they do more damage to the truck!
