Material: Premium Grade 5052 Aluminum | 12 Gauge
Notes: Shield may have some surface imperfections. Professional installation recommended. Our shield will not work with Lift Kits that modify the chassis crossmember! Tacoma shields are designed with the assumption that your vehicle has a Radiator Support Splash Shield installed (Toyota Part Number 51406-04020). Package includes catalytic converter shield, tamper-proof hardware kit, Cat Shield Protected sticker, and detailed installation guide. Order today to protect your vehicle from catalytic converter theft.
Our Fitment Guarantee: While we do our best to test and verify every model, it is impossible to know for sure. We guarantee that if your vehicle is listed on the fitment table and you purchased the right shield for your vehicle but the shield does not fit, we will issue a full refund including return shipping on the product. The vehicle must have the original converter and no modifications to the suspension. If you are unsure about your fitment, please send photos to support@millercat.com to verify fitment before purchase.

Will the shield interfere with maintenance such as engine oil and transmission fluid changes?
All Miller CAT Cat Shields will not interfere with your oil changes. Some vehicles will require the shield to be removed for transmission fluid changes. Check your maintenance schedule on how frequently to change your transmission fluid. Toyota's recommendation is 30-60k miles and 60-100k miles depending on your vehicle and driving habits.
Does this shield cause the converter to overheat?
No, our shields will not cause overheating or damage to your vehicle. In addition to shields, we manufacture catalytic converters, so we know how to protect them without damaging the converter or your vehicle. Read about this in more detail.

We do NOT guarantee our product against theft. Cat Shields are a deterrence device that are meant to discourage theft and/or make it more difficult for thieves to steal your converter. Given the right tools, technique or time, a thief can still take your converter. However, by having a shield, you are significantly increasing your protection against converter theft. Similar to a car or home alarm, you are making thieves second-guess themselves and consider moving onto another target. Deterrence works and we have countless customer accounts and video evidence of derailed converter theft.
Everything was packaged nicely and protected. Even the stickers on the box were perfectly aligned! The shield was easy to install on my 2022 Tacoma TRD offroad. It took a little more than an hour to get it installed by myself and was not difficult. The finish of the shield is very good, and the cuts and bends are top notch. I bought the aluminum version which kept it light weight, but I would have liked it to be a little thicker to make it a bit stronger. I really recommend this product because these cats on Tacoma's are so easy to get to by crawling underneath with a sawzall.
I am very pleased with the shield. Fit and finish are great! Hopefully it will never be needed but its cheap insurance. My only complaint is the way you have to start the three font screws through the crossmember to the threaded plate on top of the crossmember.
I ordered what I thought would fit my 2018 Taco TRD off-road 4x4. I couldn’t actually find the selection on the order page that showed 4x4 with the above trim. The closest thing to four-wheel-drive was “RWD” which I assumed simply meant rear wheel drive 🤷🏼♂️
So assuming I had the right cat, I took it out of the box and started placing it, just to find out that it was for a 2WD. I didn’t want to re-order and have to wait, so I broke out the hand-grinder, and made it work. And then realized that one of the nut driver bits was the incorrect one, so I had to wait for them to send me the correct one. The whole thing could’ve gone smoother, but the order page was just simply confusing. Other than all that, the stainless steel shield is quite sturdy and a good quality design.
I travel often and at times may not be in the safest of locations. Knowing that I have some protection that can deter criminals makes parking less worrisome. The company is also very responsive and will respond to questions concerns and needs. I was in need of a third mounting **** and they sent it immediately. I have had no problems with this product or company. I was worried about heat build up but I have had no problems with that either. I am in Texas and have driven IH-35 from central from Texas to San Antonio during later half of the day on a weekly basis and also in the summer leaving work with no issues. If you have driven in San Antonio anywhere after 3pm in the summer months you know what I am talking about.
The order took a few days to get here, which blew me away, because most big orders take weeks! The install went smoothly, but it wood be easier with two people. We couldn’t be more pleased with this product.
