Heavy-Duty 6mm Aluminum. 100% Bolt-On Protection. Engineered for the 7.3L Godzilla.
Armor Your Super Duty's Most Vulnerable ComponentThe ASFIR 4x4 Transfer Case Skid Plate is engineered specifically for the 2023+ Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty equipped with the 7.3L gasoline engine. In off-road environments, the transfer case is a high-exposure target for rocks, stumps, and debris. A single impact can crack the housing, leaving you stranded with a massive repair bill.
Crafted from 1/4" (6mm) laser-cut aluminum, this skid plate provides the ultimate strength-to-weight ratio. It offers heavy-duty protection without the fuel-draining weight of traditional steel plates or the corrosion issues of untreated metal.
Why ASFIR Protection:The Pain: Factory plastic or thin-gauge shields offer zero protection against real rock impacts, and heavy steel plates rust and sag over time.
The ASFIR Solution: We use 6mm thick aerospace-grade aluminum and zinc-coated steel brackets to ensure your transfer case remains bulletproof while maintaining maximum ground clearance.
Key Features: Trail-Ready Engineering
High-quality laser-cut aluminum provides superior impact resistance while keeping the total weight at a mere 11 lbs.
Uses factory mounting points for a true bolt-on application. No cutting, drilling, or permanent vehicle modification required.
Engineered with integrated stiffening ribs to prevent plate deformation during heavy off-road impacts.
Naturally rust-resistant aluminum paired with zinc-coated steel brackets ensures longevity in salt-heavy or wet environments.
Strategically placed slots prevent heat buildup around the transfer case and allow debris and water to drain freely.
Designed specifically for the Super Duty chassis to ensure minimal loss of ground clearance.
Tested on the 7.3L "Godzilla" PlatformWhile many universal skid plates fail to account for specific engine plumbing and exhaust routes, the ASFIR plate is tested and verified on the 7.3L gasoline engine platform. This ensures no rattling, no interference with moving parts, and easy access for maintenance.
11 lbs Total Weight 6mm Plate Thickness 100% Bolt-On Israel Made In
"Living on a ranch, my F-250 sees plenty of high-centered situations. I installed the ASFIR transfer case plate after seeing how exposed the Godzilla's underbelly was. The fit was perfect—literally took 20 minutes to bolt on. Already taken a few hits that would have definitely cracked the aluminum housing of the T-case."

No. This specific model is designed and tested for the 7.3L Gasoline engine. Diesel models have different exhaust and frame clearance requirements.
No. ASFIR designs their plates with integrated ventilation slots to ensure consistent airflow, preventing any heat retention during long highway hauls or intensive off-roading.
This is a 100% bolt-on system. Most owners can install it in their driveway with standard hand tools in under 30 minutes. No specialized knowledge or drilling is required.
6mm (1/4") aluminum is incredibly strong—comparable to the protection of 3/16" steel but at half the weight. Unlike steel, aluminum will not rust even if the surface is scratched by rocks.
ASFIR skid plates are custom-fit to follow the chassis contours. Loss of ground clearance is negligible, usually less than the thickness of the metal itself (6mm).

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
