Rival Set of 4 Aluminum Bash Plates Ford F-150 (2014-Present), EcoBoost only

Total Underbody Armour for the Ford F-150

Australia's terrain doesn't discriminate. Fire trails through the Blue Mountains, rock-strewn station access roads, corrugated outback highways — every kilometre puts your F-150's underbody at risk. The RIVAL 4x4 Set of 4 Aluminium Bash Plates delivers comprehensive protection from radiator to transfer case, covering every critical component in a single cost-effective bundle.

Each plate is precision-engineered to the F-150's underbody profile, maximising coverage without unnecessary weight. Whether you're touring remote regions, working rough sites, or simply protecting your investment from daily road hazards, this set gives you the confidence to drive harder and worry less.

⚠️ Note: Compatible with Ford F-150 (2014–Present) 4x4 variants only. Not compatible with PowerBoost models.

What's Protected:

Radiator Bash Plate — Sitting low at the front, the radiator is the first component to encounter flying stones and trail debris. A punctured radiator means rapid overheating and potential engine seizure. This plate provides full-coverage shielding to keep your cooling system intact.

Engine Bash Plate — The sump and lower block house your F-150's oil and critical internals. A single rock strike can crack the sump, drain your oil and destroy the engine in minutes. This plate absorbs and deflects impacts before they reach vulnerable castings.

Gearbox Bash Plate — Sitting behind the engine, your transmission is exposed to anything the engine plate doesn't intercept. One of the most expensive components to replace, this dedicated plate keeps your transmission housing and fluid lines protected.

Transfer Case Bash Plate — Essential to your 4WD system, the transfer case distributes power between axles. Damage here means loss of four-wheel drive capability — potentially stranding you in remote terrain. This plate shields the housing and seals from rocks, ruts and trail debris.

Why Aluminium Over Steel?

• 40% lighter than steel — better fuel economy, improved handling, reduced front-end loading
• Naturally corrosion resistant — withstands salt, mud, moisture and tropical humidity
