Welcome to the stoutest and sleekest skidplate/bellypan system for your 80 Series.

Our system is built around an updated transmission cross-member with multiple mounting locations, perfect for stock setups and LS swaps. This cross-member stays bolted to the chassis until you need to actually remove the transmission, as it is a low-profile CNC bent welded structure. You can easily work around it as needed for servicing the transmission and dropping the transfer case.

With our cross-member in place, you then install the skid plate. This sleek piece will keep your transfer case completely protected as you drag yourself up and over any rock you can find, while still allowing access to drain plugs. Attaching to all OEM threaded holes, installation is quick and easy (take a peek at the install instructions below).

With that complete setup installed (the "cross-member/skidplate"), you can now add the "forward plate" to your vehicle. In the same way the cross-member/skidplate protects the transfer case, the forward plate completely protects your transmission, AS WELL AS offering your radius arm chassis mounts some protection AND your front driveline (bit of a three-fer-one there).

The entire system works seamlessly with our rock sliders, so no concerns there.

NOTE: there is slight interference with the Manta brand stainless exhaust. Everything still fits but you have to put a dimple in the exhaust right before it enters the muffler.
