Toyota Land Cruiser 300 (2021-On)/ Tundra CrewMax (except Hybrid!) Transmission Bash Plate
Weight: 11.5 kg
When you're navigating Western Australia's Kimberley region, the last thing you want to worry about is a rock or hidden obstacle smashing into your transmission. Your transmission housing sits directly in the firing line of rocks, stumps, and trail debris. A cracked or damaged transmission casing can leave you stranded hundreds of kilometres from the nearest workshop. This precision-engineered bash plate keeps your gearbox safe. Designed specifically for the Toyota Land Cruiser 300, 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.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?
-
Significant Weight Savings: Aluminium is approximately 40% lighter than steel at equivalent strength, reducing overall vehicle weight and improving fuel efficiency, handling, and payload capacity on long touring trips.
-
Superior Corrosion Resistance: Unlike steel, aluminium naturally forms a protective oxide layer that resists rust and corrosion — even when the powder coat is scratched or chipped on the trail. Perfect for coastal salt air and tropical humidity.
-
Excellent Energy Absorption: Aluminium's unique molecular structure absorbs and distributes impact energy effectively, protecting both the bash plate and the component beneath it from damage.
-
Optimised for Modern Vehicles: Today's 4WD vehicles are engineered with precise weight targets. Adding heavy steel plates can affect suspension geometry, braking distances, and fuel consumption. Aluminium keeps your vehicle performing as the manufacturer intended.

Built for Australian Conditions
Australia's off-road environment is among the harshest on Earth. From the red-dust corrugations of the Outback to the rocky creek beds of the Victorian High Country, from tropical North Queensland's monsoon-battered tracks to the salt-laden coastal air of the Great Ocean Road — your underbody components face relentless punishment. RIVAL 4x4 bash plates are engineered and tested to withstand these exact conditions, with corrosion-resistant finishes that endure salt spray, tropical humidity, and abrasive red dust without degrading. Whether you're crawling over granite shelves on the Old Telegraph Track or powering through sandy riverbeds in the Kimberley, this bash plate keeps your transmission safe.
