For the conqueror in every truck, Jeep or SUV owner, the ARIES grille guard offers the tough, trail-ready look you demand. It begins with a one-piece frame of 1/4" thick welded plates and 1-1/2" mandrel-bent tubing for a solid build. Each one is made with a vehicle-specific design for a better fit, easier install and more secure mounting. The side brush guards are custom-bent to contour to the profile of your vehicle, while the mounting brackets are positioned for a no-drill application. This means pre-existing factory holes are used to ensure optimum fitment and less vibration. This particular custom grille guard fits specific years of the Toyota 4Runner (see application info to verify). The ARIES grille guard also makes it easy to customize the look of your vehicle. Not only does the crossbar have two pre-drilled holes for mounting aftermarket LED lights, but many of our grille guards are also available in two finish options -- polished stainless steel or semi-gloss black steel. The stainless steel grille guard is made with 304 stainless, being high in nickel content and truly resistant to rust and corrosion. This option comes with a mirror-like polished finish for a definitive shine. The semi-gloss black grille guard is made with high-strength carbon steel for added strength. It features a tough, dual-layer E-coat and black powder coat finish to protect against rust, scratches and the elements. All ARIES grille guards also come with rubber stripping along the risers to protect the frame against scuffs and scratches.

Absolutely! The ARIES 2066 grille guard is specifically designed for 2010-2024 Toyota 4Runner models, so your 2017 is perfectly covered. This no-drill installation uses vehicle-specific mounting brackets that attach to existing factory holes for a secure, custom fit.
This ARIES 2066 grille guard is engineered specifically for 2010-2024 Toyota 4Runner models. The vehicle-specific design ensures proper fitment and eliminates the guesswork - just make sure your 4Runner falls within that year range and you're all set.
Yes, your 2024 4Runner is the newest model year that this ARIES 2066 grille guard supports - it covers 2010-2024 Toyota 4Runner models. You'll get the same custom fit and no-drill installation as all the other compatible years.
Installation is pretty straightforward since it's a no-drill application that uses pre-existing factory mounting points. The ARIES 2066 comes with all necessary mounting hardware and detailed instructions. Most DIYers can handle this with basic hand tools in a few hours.
No. The Curt 2066 grille guard is not compatible with 2014-15 Toyota 4Runner Limited models. It is designed for 2010-15 4Runner models excluding the 2014-15 Limited trim.
The grille guard is not recommended for vehicles with optional Active laser guided cruise control systems. Installation may interfere with front sensors. If your 4Runner has this feature, consult with Curt Manufacturing before proceeding.
The kit includes: 1 grille guard, 2 frame mounting brackets (driver and passenger), 2 top mounting brackets for 2010-13 models or 2 top mounting brackets for 2014-on models, 4 12mm hex bolts (12-1.75mm x 30mm), 2 8mm hex bolts (8-1.25mm x 30mm), 2 6mm button head bolts (6-1.0mm x 20mm), 8 8mm hex bolts (8-1.25mm x 30mm), various washers and lock nuts, 50mm x 200mm adhesive-backed foam tape, and two wrenches (8mm and 6mm button head bolt wrenches).
Yes, assistance is recommended. The manual specifically states 'Assistance is Recommended' and Step 6 notes 'With assistance, line up the bottom mounting tabs on the Grille Guard' when positioning the guard during installation.
Cutting may be required. On 2010-13 models, you must cut the plastic splash guards to clear the mounting brackets (Step 9). The manual states 'cut only the amount of plastic from the splash guard to clear the Bracket'. Additionally, the adhesive-backed foam tape must be cut to fit areas that may contact the bumper cover.
The kit includes two wrenches: one for 8mm button head bolts and one for 6mm button head bolts. You will also need a tool to remove the factory bumper mount bolts and to pry up the center of the plastic fasteners on the grille. A cutting tool is needed if plastic splash guards require trimming.
1. Remove factory bumper mount bolts and install frame mounting brackets (driver side first, then passenger side). 2. Remove plastic cover between radiator and grille, then install top mounting brackets (model-specific). 3. Position the grille guard and attach to frame brackets. 4. Attach top brackets to the grille guard. 5. Level and adjust the guard, then tighten all hardware. 6. Reinstall plastic splash guards with trimming as needed (2010-13 only). 7. Perform periodic inspections.
Remove the three factory bumper mount bolts from the outside of the bumper mount (outer bolts only). Line up the three slots in the frame mounting bracket with the three bolt locations and reuse the factory bolts to attach the bracket. Snug but do not tighten the hardware at this time. On some 2010-13 models, insert the bracket horizontally through the back of the bumper opening, then rotate it up to align with the bumper bolts.
Remove the outer plastic clip attaching the grille to the cross member. Apply adhesive-backed foam tape to the underside of both top brackets (cut to fit areas contacting the bumper). Select the bracket that fits through the grille opening (inner ends are offset for different models). Insert the bracket through the grille opening from behind, then attach to the cross member with one 8mm x 30mm hex bolt, two 8mm x 24mm flat washers, and one 8mm nylon lock nut. Leave hardware loose. Repeat for the passenger side.
Remove the inner plastic clip closest to the center grille emblem. Select a 2014-on top bracket and insert it through the grille opening from behind. Attach the bracket to the cross member with one 8mm x 30mm hex bolt, two 8mm x 24mm flat washers, and one 8mm nylon lock nut. Leave hardware loose. Repeat for the passenger side.
With assistance, line up the bottom mounting tabs on the grille guard with the two previously installed frame brackets. Bolt the grille guard to the outside of the brackets using four 12mm x 30mm hex bolts, eight 12mm flat washers, four 12mm lock washers, and four 12mm hex nuts. Do not tighten the hardware at this time.
Push the grille guard back toward the vehicle and line up the top brackets with the mounting points on the guard. Attach the outer end of each top bracket to the bottom of the center crossbar using one 8mm button head bolt, one 8mm x 16mm small flat washer (top), one 8mm x 24mm flat washer (bottom), and one 8mm nylon lock nut. Leave hardware loose at this time.
Push the grille guard back toward the vehicle and line up the top brackets with the mounting points on the guard. Attach the outer end of each top bracket to the bottom of the top tube on the grille guard using one 6mm x 20mm button head bolt, one 6mm lock washer, and one 6mm flat washer. Leave hardware loose at this time.
Hold the plastic splash guard in position against the bottom of the mounting bracket and mark the area that needs to be removed. Check the location carefully and cut only the amount of plastic necessary to clear the bracket. Once clearance is verified, reinstall the splash guard with the factory hardware. Repeat for the passenger side.
Apply a layer of masking tape to the openings in the bumper to protect the painted finish during bracket installation. Additionally, apply adhesive-backed foam tape to the underside of the top mounting brackets (cutting it to fit areas that may contact the bumper cover) to prevent damage to the bumper during installation.
No. Do not over-tighten the two 8mm hex bolts attaching the top mounting brackets to the tab on the plastic grille and cross member, as this may damage the grille. Tighten all hardware only after the grille guard is properly leveled and adjusted.
Wax the product after installing to protect your investment. Regular waxing is recommended to add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives that could damage the finish. For stainless steel, aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs, and mild soap may be used to clean. For gloss black finishes, use mild soap only. Perform periodic inspections to ensure all hardware remains secure and tight.
Perform periodic inspections to ensure that all hardware is secure and tight. The manual does not specify the inspection interval, but regular checks are recommended to maintain the integrity of the installation.
