    Just put a deposit down on a 23 TRD ORP, in nautical blue. ( no KDSS ) According to my dealer, it's been built and just waiting on a long boat ride. I'm told it will be here in mid to late June. It was an order for another dealer, but my dealer made a trade with them for it. Not optioned the way I wanted it, but it's close enough.

    The only mods I plan on doing are wildpeak tires, dashcam, a good set of rock sliders, and possibly changing out the factory speakers if I don't like them. If you have any recommendations on sliders, I'm all ears.

    Welcome. I just installed a set of RCI sliders on my 23 Pro. Went on just as easy as the set I put on my 20 Pro. RSG also makes nice rock sliders.

    I went with Caliraised sliders. https://caliraisedled.com/products/2010-2021-4runner-step-edition-bolt-on-rock-sliders. Lead time is 0-4 weeks. Got an instant 5% of coupon, as soon as I confirmed my email address. Kick out, top plate, and everything powdercoated. No upcharge for DOM.

    Having had a Wrangler previously, I'm familiar with how most sliders are shipped. In a box, where the coating can be chipped. How Cali ships them swayed me in their direction.

    Will get some pics when they and my truck get here.

    I have RSG HREW flat sliders with top plate. HREW is slightly less weight than DOM and good enough for my needs. Been flat and having top plate is a big thing to be used as a step. The top plate also give some protection on the sides driving on gravel roads. If you don't have KDSS there's no headaches whatsoever in the install process.

    Welcome! I have the full set of RCI skids, and added their sliders over the weekend. Perfect fit, great construction, and easy install.

    This install work reminds me that I need to save some big pieces of cardboard.
