Skid Plate Bummer

[Tone]

I’d opt for the reduced clearance rather than damaging the T-case. There is room above the plate so that if it bends, it does not crush into the case and alter the driveline alignment. Mine has taken it’s share of hits and bent in a couple of placed but I have not gotten stuck on it. Oil and tranny pans are in even more vulnerable positions.

Can someone tell me the part number for just the skid plate that runs from cross member, across exhaust to drivers rear frame? I can not seem to find this one in any junk yards.
Thanks

I believe the one you are refering to is the "Protector: Frame"
8-97036-238-1. Of the three, that is the one that attaches to the frame on the driver's side and the crossmember.

The transfer case skid plate runs from cross member to frame on passenger side...I have that one...I don't need the one that runs on passenger side forward...as I have Tone's Diamond Plate Skid Plate.... I need the one that runs on drivers side frame a little toward the rear and forward to cross member.
That is this one, right


If so, thanks!!!;Dp;

Yeah, that one is 8-97036-238-1.

I remember when my skid plates looked like that!

Honest, no lies but my Diamond Plate Skid Plate is the greatest thing to protect my VX's underbelly. Thanks to those who made it a reality
