6mm High-Strength Aluminum. 100% Bolt-On Fit. Lightweight Drivetrain Security.
Engineered for Real Off-Road ProtectionThe ASFIR 4X4 Transfer Case Skid Plate is a critical upgrade for any 2015+ Ford F-150 owner who ventures off the pavement. Your transfer case is one of the most vulnerable and expensive components of your 4WD system, often left exposed by factory splash guards that offer zero impact resistance.
Manufactured from precision laser-cut 1/4" (6mm) aluminum, this skid plate provides a rugged shield against rocks, stumps, and trail debris. It is designed to take the hit so your drivetrain doesn't have to, ensuring you make it back home after every adventure.
Why ASFIR Protection:The Pain: A cracked transfer case on the trail is an instant "day-ender," leading to thousands in mechanical repairs and expensive remote recoveries.
The ASFIR Solution: Lightweight 6mm Aluminum that provides heavy-duty shielding without the weight of steel, featuring a 100% Bolt-On design for a hassle-free install.
Key Features: ASFIR 4X4 Transfer Case Shield
Designed specifically for the F-150 Crew Cab chassis. It installs securely into existing factory holes, preserving your frame's integrity and resale value.
Thick aerospace-grade aluminum offers superior impact resistance while remaining rust-proof and significantly lighter than steel alternatives.
Features integrated stiffening ribs that provide extra structural rigidity, ensuring the plate won't bow or deform under high-centered impacts.
Strategically placed ventilation slots reduce heat build-up around the transfer case while allowing mud and water to drain away easily.
Includes zinc-coated steel brackets that mount the plate directly to the vehicle chassis for maximum load-bearing strength.
At only 18 lbs, this skid plate provides essential armor without adding unnecessary bulk or affecting your fuel economy and suspension travel.
Precision Fit for 13th & 14th Gen F-150Unlike universal plates, ASFIR components are modeled on the vehicle structure to minimize ground clearance loss. The smooth aluminum surface allows your truck to glide over obstacles that would otherwise snag on exposed cross-members or the transfer case itself.
18 lbs Lightweight Armor 6mm Aluminum Thickness 100% Bolt-On Fit Israel Proven Quality
"The fitment on my 2022 F-150 4WD was perfect. I hit a large rock while high-centered on a trail last weekend, and the ASFIR plate took the entire hit. Looking at the scrapes, I'm 100% sure the transfer case would have been ruined without it. Highly recommended for any F-150 owner who actually goes off-road."

CA Residents: ⚠️ WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
No. The ASFIR Transfer Case Skid Plate is a 100% Bolt-On system. It utilizes existing factory mounting points on your F-150's frame, meaning no modifications to your truck are necessary.
This plate is designed for standard 2015+ F-150 Crew Cab 4WD models. While the chassis is similar to the Raptor, we recommend checking the crossmember configuration as some Raptors come with factory shielding that may interfere.
Loss of ground clearance is negligible. ASFIR plates are designed to hug the vehicle structure as closely as possible. Often, you gain the ability to "slide" over obstacles rather than getting hung up on mechanical components.
The skid plate includes integrated drain holes to ensure mud and sand don't get trapped. Routine checks of the transfer case fluid level can typically be done without removing the plate depending on your specific reach.
6mm Aluminum provides the necessary impact resistance for overlanding and moderate rock crawling. While steel is technically harder, aluminum is rust-proof and much lighter, making it the preferred choice for F-150 owners concerned with payload and fuel efficiency.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks
