Okay Got them installed today. They came out sweet! I thought the transfer case plate was for the transmission oil pan. (I know Hans5.2 has said it but I thought maybe it covered both.) That plate was off already when I was removing them from the junkyard. So I didn't know how it was mounted. Now that leave the transmission oil pan vulnerable. I will build my own plate for it. Hopefully within the next week or so. I will post up pics of it.

LOL! The bolt is actually red. I lost one bolt. It always happeneds, lose one bolt or nut. Or you find an extra one, once your done! From memory it was a fender bolt off of the 4wd truck I took apart. The truck was red.

Lol, for me it's always leftovers. I have a small bucket of bolts that came out of my truck and never went back in :P

A small update. I made a Transmission oil pan skid plate, with 1/8 plate. Unfortunately my truck is in the transmission shop until Monday or Tuesday. I will install it then. Here is a pic.

It shouldn't be to hard. We had 2 members who tore open theirs lately. Also 95_318SLT has an extra 231. If you live near him I'm sure he will hook you up with a good price. If you want you can open a new thread. Also we have the service manuals in the FAQ in this section. They will give you complete details on the rebuild.

Finally had time to install the Transmission Skid Plate that I made. Here it is. Now I am fully covered! Just one of the 3 big things for today.
