Tundra front frame rails vs lx570

[Rawrear]

Are the tundra frame rails on the 2008 the same as the 2008 lx570

No

They are not the same. But they share a similar architecture and major pickup points are dimensionally shared or similar.

What are you trying to do?

They don’t make a baseplate for the lx570 wonder if a baseplate for the tundra would work.

If they are the same width they should work the same?

If by baseplate, you meant front skids, yes it largely fits and has been done.

TRD Tundra Skids on 200 Series

I saw on a Facebook 200 series group that Someone had fitted a TRD Tundra Skid Plate on to their 200 series LX, and said that only 1 hole had to be drilled on the skid plate in order for it to work. Does anyone have any additional info on this?

I think I've heard that done too. I know there's a front hitch from the tundra that will bolt up to the 200 series so there's a good chance most things are compatible

Search for flat tow as there are people here doing it, and ask what they use.

Read the thread on flat towing. Unlike the Tundra our transfer cases are full time engagement and if you do this incorrectly damage may (will likely) occur.
