Shield Your Tank 300's Gearbox From the Ground Up
Your GWM Tank 300's gearbox sits directly behind the engine — low, exposed, and in the path of every rock, rut, and hidden obstacle on the trail. A single hard impact to the transmission housing can crack the casing, drain the fluid, and leave you stranded far from help. The RIVAL 4x4 Aluminium Gearbox Bash Plate is precision-engineered for the Tank 300, bolting directly to factory mounting points to put a solid 6mm aluminium shield between the road and your drivetrain — without drilling, without permanent modifications, and without compromising ground clearance.
Built from deep-stamped high-strength aluminium alloy with a sandblasted matte black powder coat finish, this plate is tough enough for serious off-road use while staying light enough to keep your Tank 300 performing as it should. At just 5.0 kg, it adds meaningful protection without affecting suspension geometry, fuel economy, or payload capacity.
Key Features
- 6mm high-strength aluminium alloy — precision laser-cut and deep-stamped for maximum rigidity
- Sandblasted + textured matte black powder coat — UV, salt, and corrosion resistant
- Ventilated design for optimal airflow and cooling around the gearbox
- Direct bolt-on to factory mounting points — no drilling or chassis modification
- Fully reversible installation — won't affect your vehicle warranty
- Weight: 5.0 kg
- Fitment: GWM Tank 300 (2021–Present) — Petrol models only
Why Aluminium?
- 40% lighter than steel — less load on your suspension, better fuel economy, and more GVM headroom for gear and recovery equipment
- Naturally corrosion resistant — aluminium's protective oxide layer combined with powder coating resists rust after coastal driving, water crossings, and tropical humidity
- Energy absorbing — distributes impact energy across the plate rather than transmitting it directly to the gearbox housing and mounting points
- Engineered for modern 4WDs — keeps your Tank 300 performing within its designed weight targets
