An old roommate of mine left a skid plate in my yard and I am not sure what it was from. It was either his 85 pickup or 98 4runner. Any help? Both trucks are wrecked now so I am going to sell it, but want to know what it is first. Thanks!

 

Looks like it's from an 85' solid axle rig.

 

Sweet. I thought that was it but wasnt 100%. Thanks!

 

it really looks like a transmission skid to an Fj80 to be honest. lol

 

i didnt know the solid axle trucks had a skid like that. where does it go? pics? what does it cover? I MUST LEARNNNNN

 

I just checked it, its not from an FJ80. I have no clue to be honest.

But solid axle rigs still have mid-body skids on the transmissions, and transfer cases.

 

I guarantee that isn't from a 3rd gen

 

that looks like a front skid plate thats on my 85 4runner, its not very thick metal, it will fit a 84 or 85 4runner or 4x4 truck, not sure on the 84

 

Thanks for the input guys. Its for sale if anyone needs it! Tho shipping would probably make it not worth it.

 

In a somewhat related hijack would http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/pts/2797071136.html fit on an 87?

 

assuming your 87 is IFS, then yes it will fit. It should fit all 86-95 pickups.

 

It just sits on the bottom of the frame under the front of the engine and over the front sway bar. Just helps keep rocks and mud out of the engine compartment and lets hot air from the radiator out through those vents.

 

Which is why it's called ENGINE UNDER COVER NO.1(PNC 51441).

 

I had one that I couldn't even give away on c-list. ended up in the scrap pile.
