Just snapped these pictures.
I've updated this post to reflect that it is the "Wavy" or "S" style cross member.
Not the "W" style.

That's what is commonly called the "wavy" or "S" style crossmember. It was used '87-'91.

Okay, thanks.
Well that makes sense since it's a 91

Sorry I got a little confused here.
I wasn't familiar with the differences in the crossmembers.
So on my '91 Suburban, (see pictures) is it correct that I have the "W" or wavy crossmember? And this is also known as "S" style crossmember?
Thank you.

They are kind of confusing, lol. The "W" crossmember was used in '85-'86. The "W" crossmember looks like the passenger side of your crossmember, but on both sides. There's a thread around here about the crossmembers, I'll see if I can find it.

It's kind of a long read, but there's lots of good info in there.

Thank you!
I cannot attach a photo in the message board...but I can in these threads... This crossmember is from an 86 K5 and is the "W" shape.

Hey thanks for sending the pics.
I'm going to have to compare it and make sure we have the same crossmember here.
Do you know how much you want for just the skid plate and the bolts holding it on to the crossmember?
Thanks again.
