Right on bro I got it. I figured it would go into those small holes that I saw. It's just that they weren't tapped but since you say these screws that are included are self-tapping I'll give it a go. thanks again for the quick response I appreciate it. Might just knock this out tonight since I'm off tomorrow I don't mind being up.

Sorry to dig up this old thread, but there is one Transfer Skid plate for sale, and for only $40.

It is for sale on another Dodge forum, DakDur. (Items for sale section)

Figure it out (Links not allowed here) and score it for a bargain. It's up in Massachusetts, he says looking for a local sale. Unless you convince him to ship the damn thing.

try dakota - durango. The seller is asking about $40 and you probably need to supply your own hardware, which you can get a Lowe's or Home Depot (probably other hardware stores, too).
