Why Underbody Protection Is Essential
Australia’s rugged landscapes can be unforgiving for your 4x4. Rocky trails, river crossings, and harsh outback terrain can easily damage vital components such as your engine, transmission, and fuel tank if left unprotected.
Without proper underbody protection, a single impact could result in thousands of dollars in repairs — and extended time off the tracks.
Real-World Costs of Common Off-Road Damage
- Engine oil pan replacement: $2,000–$5,000
- Transmission case repair: $5,000+
- Fuel tank puncture repair: $1,500–$3,000
Investing in quality underbody protection early can save you from these costly surprises.
