What's Protected
- Radiator Bash Plate — The Y63's large radiator is essential for cooling its powerful engine, but it's positioned low and forward where it's exposed to constant bombardment from stones, gravel and debris. A punctured radiator on a brand-new Patrol would be a costly and frustrating setback. This plate provides full-width aluminium shielding to keep the cooling system intact.
- Engine Bash Plate — The Y63's twin-turbo V6 is a sophisticated and expensive powertrain. The oil sump and lower engine block are vulnerable to direct rock strikes on rough terrain, and a cracked sump means catastrophic oil loss and potential engine seizure. This plate delivers full-coverage engine protection, absorbing and deflecting impacts from the terrain below.
- Transmission Bash Plate — The Patrol's 9-speed automatic transmission is a precision component that doesn't tolerate impacts. Sitting behind the engine, it's exposed to debris that passes under the vehicle at speed. A cracked transmission housing leads to fluid loss and gear failure. This plate shields the gearbox from front to back.
- Transfer Case Bash Plate — The Y63's full-time 4WD system relies on the transfer case to distribute torque and engage low range. Losing the transfer case in remote terrain means losing 4WD capability when you need it most. This plate protects the transfer case housing and seals from rocks, ledges and ruts.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?
- Weight Savings: The Y63 is a large vehicle already. Adding 26.8 kg of aluminium rather than 45+ kg of steel keeps weight manageable and preserves the Patrol's handling, fuel economy and ride comfort.
- Corrosion Resistance: Aluminium is naturally rust-proof. For a vehicle destined to spend decades exploring Australia's diverse and demanding environments, this means long-term structural integrity without maintenance.
- Energy Management: Aluminium absorbs and dissipates impact energy progressively, protecting both the plate itself and the expensive components behind it from the kind of sharp jolts that rocks and ruts deliver.
- New Vehicle, New Standard: The Y63 represents the latest in Nissan engineering. RIVAL 4x4's aluminium protection complements that modern approach, using premium materials that match the vehicle's quality.
