Protect the LC300's Most Valuable Drivetrain Components
The Toyota LandCruiser 300 is Australia's ultimate outback touring vehicle — and its twin-turbo engine and 10-speed automatic transmission represent a serious investment worth protecting. Both components sit exposed beneath the vehicle, d irectly in the path of rocks, ruts, and debris on the kind of tracks the LC300 was built to handle. This RIVAL 4x4 two-plate aluminium bash plate set covers the engine and transmission with seamless, front-to-back underbody armour, precision-engineered to the 300 Series' new-design underbody profile.
Each plate is deep-stamped from 6mm high-strength aluminium alloy with a textured matte black powder coat finish, and bolts directly to factory mounting points with no drilling and no permanent modifications. At a combined weight of just 20 kg, the set keeps the LC300's weight distribution within factory-intended parameters — preserving ride comfort and fuel economy on long tours.
What's Protected
- Engine Bash Plate — The LC300's advanced twin-turbo engine is a significant investment. The sump and lower engine block sit exposed to direct rock strikes on rutted tracks and rocky descents. This plate guards the full underside of the engine bay, absorbing impacts and distributing force across its deep-stamped surface.
- Transmission Bash Plate — Sitting directly behind the engine, the 10-speed automatic transmission is vulnerable to debris that passes beneath the vehicle at speed. A single hard impact can cause leaks, shift issues, or complete gearbox failure. This plate provides continuous coverage behind the engine plate — no gap in your drivetrain's armour.

Why Aluminium?
- GVM friendly — at 20 kg combined, aluminium keeps the LC300's weight distribution within factory parameters, preserving ride comfort and fuel economy on long tours
- Naturally corrosion resistant — immune to rust whether you're crossing tidal creeks in the Kimberley or driving through tropical rain in Far North Queensland
- Energy absorbing — aluminium's natural flex absorbs and redirects impact energy rather than transferring damaging forces to chassis mounting points
- Consistent with LC300 engineering — the 300 Series was designed with significant weight savings over the 200 Series; aluminium bash plates maintain that advantage
