Re: bash plate damage

Looking at replacing my damaged toyota bash plate with one of the Brown Davis UGTP120F1, which would cover the front sump, steering & diff...
Found one on Extreme Limits Offroad for $426.00, unsure how that price compares?

They have a smaller one which one does the radiator (and intercooler???) for $241.00...

Does anyone know if there is a place in adelaide that sells these? Or should I order online? And how does the price sound?

Cheers Matt

$426 is a little steep. Does that include delivery? I've seen them advertised for about $300 from memory for the full length plate to suit the 120. Thing to watch out for is the plate needs to be removed when you do an oil change as you can no longer access the sump drain plug.
Here is a link to an image so you can see the drain is not accessible:

i had heard that the sump drain plug was not accessible, however, easily solved with a holesaw...
Also thought that the $426 was steep!!! And probably doesn't inc. delivery... Although, I didn't go though with purchase so not 100% on that

Where have you seen them advertised for $300? thats a much more reasonable price!!!

Re: bash plate damage

Matt,

Get in contact with DNA off road over in Vic. There will be courier fees as well (so maybe also contact Brown Davis direct as they are not too far apart)
http://www.dnaoffroad.com.au/product...and-diff-guard UGTP120F1 $311.83 (Front sump, steering and diff guard)
http://www.dnaoffroad.com.au/product...radiator-guard UGTP120F2 $175.90 (Radiator Gaurd but I think you made one of these to suit your alloy bar)
http://www.dnaoffroad.com.au/product...smission-guard UGTP120T1 $185.68 (Transmission Guard)

They may do an even better price for a full metal jacket (ie all three)

Just cleaned out that little grill on the front skid plate. Behind it there are 2 curved deflectors directing air towards the front diff.
