Valhalla’s Shield theft deterrent/skid plates info and ordering post

Super glue?

 

Nah....I have some security bolts, regular bolts, etc.

 

This is the quietest this thread has ever been. I hope tyler gets his steel soon. I only have to park in downtown methistan for another week and I don't have to go back. Crossing fingers

 

Hey @Classy63 do you have any of the TRD PRO nut plate's in stock? I'm buying a set of your skids off of another member and I don't have the back two bolts on my TRD pro skid plate so I need the plates and I guess the 3/8 bolts to get them installed.

 

Tag him so that he will receive a notification as he doesn't always have time to read each individual post.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

 

Man I know the feeling I waited 8 months for my Cats to be replaced after they were cut off. Then once Toyota installed the new exhaust (finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel) They notified me that my O2 sensor grounded itself to the frame after they cut the cats and it fried my ECU. Got her back last week… I’ve been beyond paranoid of where I park. I’m also hoping that steel comes in soon. It would be nice to have that peace of mind again….

 

I do, place and order and message me so I send it out asap

I live in Tomball so is there any way I can place an order and then pick them up from you early next week?

 

You can certainly arrange local pickup when it is ready. Current lead time is around 6-8 weeks, but @Classy63 will have better timeline update. You can PM him as he checks that quicker than going through the forum pages.

 

He is referring to a nut plate that Tyler said he has in stock a few posts up

 

Just trying to get a set of nut plates for the back 2 3/8 bolts on the TRD skid, not plates. Last time I was on his order page I didn't see a local pick up option but it was there just now. I will PM @Classy63 my order number right now.

 

Sorry. My bad..... early morning reading sure made my brains melt and this Houston traffic ain't helping....
But yea, PM him and he should get back to you about the local pickup and how to place an order. I know he usually works early morning to beat the heat and kinda stop and rest closer to mid-day.

 

Its all good! Yeah I'm out the door around 5:30 every morning to beat the crazy traffic around here. Thanks of the help though, I just sent a PM with my order number so hopefully he can take care of me sometime next week and I can get these skids I'm picking up today mounted asap. Going to need some protection next weekend when I run the gauntlet downtown for a Stro's game.

 

Just checking in on a potential ship date on my order please

 

How are you liking that vertical plate?

 

Loving it. Drove around for a bit, no noise no rattling nothing. As far as how it does? Never had someone attempt it, yet (knock on plate)
But yea, that piece does make me feel much more solid as the space is very tight and tools ain't gonna get in there without losing a finger or two.

Overall, for 2WD, get it. 4WD, I don't even know if it fits..... @Classy63 ?

 

Sweet. Yeah I was one of the 10 pre-orders so it won't be long. He is just waiting on hardware to arrive. There is definitely a large amount of room on the 2wd. It took me a descent amount of time to research protection for the 4Runner. I ended up getting a full set of CBI skids for it....better than nothing. No way in hell was I putting an aluminum plate from the other guy that was tacky looking on it.

 

I can't remember if you also have Tyler's front skid, but my Taco co-worker was really impressed today when I told him to take a look at the plates, I have the whole set, front skid, front and back and the vertical, it's like an armor suit under there. I am happy.

 

I have the DE front plate and the Valhalla rear.

 

You will love the vertical plate, it bring a closure, pardon the pun, to feel safer.

 

Well, lovely UPS lost another package of bolts… I will harass them tomorrow and I might get the bolts Saturday…

 

None related to the thread, but I am watching a USPS package going back to the shipper (north Vegas) and it was shipped out from me in Houston, TX and it is currently in FL?!

 

WTF......

 

I mean, it is USPS..... but yea, this will get interesting very fast. That's a 2021 MBP 16in with M1 Pro CPU..... $2K in transit....

 

They must be getting paid by the mile.

 

You mean 6-8 months

 

Hopefully not, although I've been waiting for a full steel set for my '16 since April as well. Regardless I might just go long tubes and tuck the factory cats safely in the basement. E85 burns clean anyways.

 

Remember my nut plate adventure?
9 days to go what should have been 250 miles, Houston to Dallas.
