Installation Manual - Click here
Weight: 8.0 kg
When you're navigating the corrugated roads around Coober Pedy, the last thing you want to worry about is a rock or hidden obstacle smashing into your transfer case. The transfer case is the heart of your 4WD system, directing power to all four wheels when you need it most. Positioned low and centrally beneath the vehicle, it's vulnerable to impacts from rocks and obstacles on challenging terrain. Designed specifically for the Isuzu D-Max, this RIVAL 4x4 high-strength aluminium alloy bash plate delivers precision-engineered protection that bolts directly to factory mounting points — no drilling, no permanent modifications, and no compromise on ground clearance.
