What are you trying to accomplish? What's wrong with UCF's engine/trany skid?
Just exploring options. Been thinking about Savvy due to the weight and design. Are there other options I should be considering?
I installed the Savvy skid with no BL to the stock trans skid

The oil pan/trany pan skid is pretty generic, so don't see much you could improve on, IMO.
Good to know, thanks. Which one are you running? UCF?
The savvy skid just requires you to drill 4 (or so) holes in the transfer case skid in order to attach. It should work but if you look at the attached photos you may need to trim a bit of material off the savvy. If I was in your shoes I would likely just go with the UFC since it was designed to work with the t-case skid. View attachment 115022View attachment 115023
That looks good. How painful are oil changes? Did you get one of those Fumoto valves or something similar to make that easier?
WHY!!!!!For anyone that is looking to do this in the future -
The UCF transfercase skidplate is NOT compatible with the skidrow offroad engine skid plate. I will be returning it and getting a UCF engine skid (that I should have gotten in the 1st place). The shapes are different and it's much too work to get them to fit together and not worth it.
I only went with skidrow for lower cost since it comes powdercoated but now I will pay for my wrong choice.
That said .. the skidrow offroad skid is beefy as hell. After seeing how heavy it is, I am going to get the 6061-T6 UCF skid.

WHY!!!!!
Looks like I'm ordering a new engine skid today and putting my Skid row for sale.
Mine was ordered quickly after writing that post and has already shipped. Net I'll be losing approximately 40lbs so I'm not really upset.I know, right!
I ended up buying my engine skid from UCF and even that took a small bit it grinding to get it fit nice and square. I like the setup now.
