Weight: 10.0 kg

The transfer case is the backbone of your Toyota Hilux’s four-wheel drive system — and it sits dangerously exposed beneath the vehicle. On tracks like Grampians National Park in western Victoria, one rock strike to the transfer case can disable your 4WD capability entirely, turning an adventure into a rescue mission. The RIVAL 4x4 Transfer Case Bash Plate delivers purpose-built armour for this critical component, featuring a new design with improved fitment and enhanced coverage for your Hilux.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?

• Significant Weight Savings — Aluminium is approximately 40% lighter than steel, preserving your Hilux’s payload for tools and gear.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance — Aluminium naturally resists rust — essential for the Hilux’s workhorse role in all conditions.
• Excellent Energy Absorption — Aluminium absorbs impact energy rather than transmitting forces into the chassis.
• Engineered for Australia’s Favourite Ute — Designed to protect without affecting GVM or ride quality.
