I got a full set of 3/8 inch steel RCI skids -- plus the gas tank -- and would recommend that to you.
People complain about the weight from steel skids. But it is only around 120 lbs. -- 175 lbs. if you also add the steel gas tank skid -- which is comparable to the weight of a full tank of gas (23 gallons x 6 lbs a gallon = 138 lbs.). That's like driving around with a small-ish friend and complaining about the extra weight -- give me a break. 175 lbs. is about 3 percent of the gross weight of a 5500 lb. 4Runner, which is next to nothing for the protection you get in return.
The RCI skids have an awesome oil drain plug access hole and a hatch for the oil filter. Very easy to install (I used a floor jack to support them and installed myself) and are an excellent fit on the 4Runner.
