When you’re pushing your Suzuki Jimny across Old Telegraph Track in Cape York, every component beneath the vehicle is exposed to rocks, ruts, and hidden obstacles. This comprehensive 5-plate set protects your Rear Differential, Fuel Tank, Transmission, Transfer Case and Steering — giving you virtually complete underbody coverage from front to rear.

What’s Protected

• Rear Differential Bash Plate — Protects the rear diff housing from rock strikes that can crack the casing and cause catastrophic gear oil loss — keeping your 4WD drivetrain fully operational.
• Fuel Tank Bash Plate — Shields your fuel tank from punctures caused by rocks and debris — preventing dangerous fuel leaks and ensuring you can carry enough fuel for remote touring.
• Transmission Bash Plate — Guards the transmission housing from impacts that can crack the casing or damage internal components — keeping your gearbox shifting smoothly.
• Transfer Case Bash Plate — Armours the transfer case — the heart of your 4WD system — from rock strikes that can disable low-range capability when you need it most.
• Steering Bash Plate — Protects exposed steering rods and linkages from impacts that can cause alignment issues or steering failure on technical terrain.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?

• Significant Weight Savings — Aluminium is approximately 40% lighter than steel, critical for the Jimny’s compact suspension system and tight GVM limits.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance — Aluminium naturally forms a protective oxide layer that resists rust — even when the powder coat is scratched. Essential for beach and creek crossings.
• Excellent Energy Absorption — Aluminium’s flex characteristics absorb and distribute impact energy rather than transmitting forces into the chassis.
• Engineered for Lightweight Vehicles — Every kilogram counts on the Jimny. Aluminium delivers serious protection without overloading suspension or affecting handling.
