      And yes, aluminum is pretty soft compared to steel, at the "same temper"! Softer bring deformation! It won't skid as much, it'll try to grab it, instead, elongate has much as it can before perforing! Hammer test them, steel : the whole piece will warp, aluminum : it'll dent!

    The GX460 does NOT require premium gas! It "recommends" it based on the fact that the GX weighs more than the first gen Tundra that they originally designed the 4.6 for. That's it. Most GX owners do NOT use premium. I don't. You cannot tell ANY difference when you drive it either.

    Every suspension mod you can make to a 4Runner you can make on a GX. The only challenge with the GX is ground clearance. The approach and departure angles are a lot worse on the GX compared to the 4Runner, but they are easily mitigated with some trimming. Removing the running boards and installing sliders handles the other ground clearance problems. I have zero regrets about going with a GX460 over a 5th gen 4Runner.

  • @TaterGrabbinBass

    The Outgear Solutions bumper is the only rear bumper I’ve found that I’ve actually liked. I wanted a tube rear with single swing (for same large table option) with the 1/4 panel tree savers and I wanted a hitch which a lot of tube rears don’t have or are poorly integrated. I will definitely have to remember and save this video because I will be doing the extra cross bars regardless of the hammering. I will likely be getting a custom front bumper made from Drew’s Fab to keep that tube style for the bumpers. I’m still on the fence for under armor skid plates. But I will be getting the WC Dirt King 3.5 long travel front and rear and that’s why I’m going tube for lighter weight just a tire & single gas and utilize the roof rack for other stuff. Great video and great ideas! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

The one in the video looks like a large refuge sack style, which I understand will fill to its full shape once removed. If you used a narrower bin liner (e.g. pedal style liner) which is a narrower shape, would this stop it from expanding as much once removed? Just a thought

    Im not here to argue or debate but I will say I own a set of full aluminum skids on my GX470 made by RCI, I have beat the living s&%t out of my skids the past 2 years hitting a lot more then fire roads, I have 3 and 2 wheeled my setup many times sitting in nothing but these skids, yes they have slightly deformed in some areas but overall they have taken the beating, no welds have ever cracked and my engine and trany temps have always statyed normal, the only issues I ever had was my diff drop bolts hit the front skid plate so I drilled 3" relief holes and then covered them with 1/4" aluminum plate thats riveted on, my y-pipe on the drivers side was also hitting the trany skid plate where the edge is bent and I had to trim it slightly, other then that they have held up, maybe I got the unicorn batch of aluminum skids made on a wedneaday but I can not complain, they have held up great for me.
