Getting the Wheeling Fever
Looking for a decent transfer case skid plate. Now that Downey is out of business I'm having trouble finding these type of aftermarket parts for my '91

I have that one on my '89 4Runner. Does the job nicely.
The belly pan is a little odd, in that there is nothing supporting the front of the pan, so when you hit/land on something under it it will flex up and down like a springboard. Not his fault, there's just not much up there to tie it into.

I get the impression Bud is now focusing on the newer vehicles.
