Do I really need bash plates for my 4WD?
If you’re planning any off-road driving, even on mildly rough tracks, bash plates are highly recommended. Factory underbody protection is often minimal and not designed to withstand heavy impacts. Bash plates protect critical components like your sump, diff housing, and transmission from rocks and obstacles, helping prevent major mechanical damage.
What materials are best for bash plates?
Steel bash plates are extremely tough and ideal for harsh, rocky terrain. Aluminium options are lighter but still offer solid protection for moderate use. The right choice depends on how you drive—steel is best for serious off-roading, while alloy plates suit touring setups. We can recommend the best material based on your use case.
Will bash plates affect ground clearance or airflow?
Properly installed bash plates are designed to maintain ground clearance and allow airflow for cooling. Good-quality kits follow the vehicle’s contours and have ventilation cutouts where needed. We ensure all plates are fitted securely with no rattling or obstruction to other components like steering, fuel lines, or exhaust systems.
