Finally had a chance to install the CR Front, Trans and Cat Shields installed on the 23 TRD Sport. Everything installed without a hitch with two exceptions of the Cat shields and only because of the Xreas lines that run on the frame near where the front of the shields locate. But simple enough to make some minor adjustments to the lines for clearance. The other is where the front shield mounts to the OEM skid. But the mounting are just weak plastic quick release push pins (see red circles). The front part of the shield attaches with a couple 10mm bolts. That shield is beefy for plastic and without the push pins it doesn't move. Doesn't make any noise not having the pins so at this point I'm going to keep an eye on it. If it seems like something needs to be addressed I'll make something. So no noise or rattles with any of the add on's.
The oil filter excess door seems okay and should work okay.
I forgot to add I expanded the oil drain plug access hole and fitted the OEM plate to the front cali shield. Expanded because the cali hole was pretty small and any spillage would be had to access. Its won't see much off road service.
