NC WTB-Transfer Case Skid Plate

[drillrod]

I am looking for a factory skid plate for my 72 K5. I have the gas tank skid plate and need the transfer case skid plate to complete my restoration. A reproduction will work if anyone knows where to find one, thanks.

I have a stock t-case skid, not sure if I have the crossmember to go with it. Let me look, will check thursday after work.

[1rippen6]

If swyfor5 doesn't have the crossmember I will if you want to go the stock path.

[drillrod]

Sounds good swyfor5, just let me know. 1rippen6, I will wait to see what he has,thanks.

[1rippen6]

sounds good

[swyfor5]

Sorry, can't find it. Keep looking and good luck!

[drillrod]

Anyone else have at least the skid plate? Thanks for looking swyfor5

[1rippen6]

I have a factory skid plate I am keeping for my build I can take it to a local fab shop and see what it would cost to have one made if interested in that. I can get you pictures of the one I have (not for sale just an example) today after work if you are interested.

[drillrod]

Yea that would be great 1rippen6 if u think your guy can build an exact repo of the skid plate and let me know how much for the cross member to go with it, thanks

[highrpm]

I think I have one, will look tomorrow.

[drillrod]

That would be great high rpm! Let me see what highrpm has before you see about having one made 1rippen6, I still may need the cross member if he doesn't have one, thanks.

[swyfor5]

Found the stocker. Couple of scratches on it but real solid. If your still looking, how's $65.00 plus ship cost sound? Here's some pic's!

[drillrod]

Looks good, I will take it. Do u take paypal?

[drillrod]

1rippen6, I sent u a PM.

Looked at my skid plate off my 71 over the weekend looks a little different than swyfor5's does. You can see I have a bent at each end of the skid plate that being said the crossmember for that skid plate is different than the automatic crossmembers it is a little shallower.

drillrod keep missing each other LOL responded to your pm

[drillrod]

Sent you a PM swyfor5

[swyfor5]

I can't remember what this one came off of but, I picked it up a long time ago for my manual 4 speed setup. So based on rippen6's info, Id's say mine is for a manual crossmember setup. Completly understand if you want to keep looking, no problems here at all. I ended up going with the Hicky style on mine and really like the way it looks. But if your going the stock route, good luck on finding one, they are out there and this is the best site to find stuff like this. Let me know, sending you a PM. Thank's, Bryan.

The style of swyfor5's transfer case skid plate (pictured below) is the one I've seen on '71-'72 Blazers with automatics. The rear transfer case skidplate crossmember is the same as the transfer case crossmember less the upper brackets.

I've never seen the style of 1rippen6's transfer case skid plate. Maybe someone else can help?

Here is the one I just took off yesterday from my 72 automatic I'm parting out.
Sorry still greasy.

[1rippen6]

So it looks like mine is the odd one out I bought my first 71 blazer about 17 years ago and that is the shield it had on it. I assumed it was original but know looking at everyone elses maybe not.
