Protect the driveline that makes your Grenadier so capable

You bought your Grenadier to use it, and proper protection underneath helps you enjoy doing exactly that. This 8 mm Almont guard covers the ZF 8HP automatic gearbox and Tramec transfer case on the Grenadier and Quartermaster, putting certified duralumin between rough ground and two important parts of the drivetrain.

SKU: PDINGB8

HeavyDuty protection for the gearbox and transfer case

The transmission deserves attention when you are preparing the truck for rocky lanes or a longer trip carrying camping equipment. This 8 mm HeavyDuty guard protects the gearbox and transfer case together and weighs 14.5 kg. It is also the mounting partner for the separate engine sump guard.

Why we recommend Almont

Certified AW5083 H111 duralumin gives you substantial, high-strength alloy protection without the material weight of steel of the same size and thickness. The plate will not develop red rust if its surface is scratched, so it is a good choice for a vehicle you intend to keep and use. Wash off mud and road salt to look after the alloy and the separate steel mounting hardware.

Almont has specialised in vehicle protection since 1992, with input from vehicle preparers involved in the Dakar Rally and other rally-raid events. Its protection is designed and manufactured in Spain. You are choosing specialist underbody protection for the parts of your vehicle that have to face the rough ground first.

Fitting

Re-drill two holes for M10 fixings when installing this guard. It fits the stated ZF 8HP gearbox and Tramec transfer arrangement.

Designed for the original chassis, axle, suspension-stay, transmission and stabiliser mounting arrangements. Raised suspension is compatible when those original supports are retained. Body lifts, differential-drop kits and altered mounting supports are incompatible.

Matching protection

If you want engine protection as well, add the Grenadier engine sump guard; it requires this gearbox and transfer plate for its mounting. The front guard is a separate purchase for the leading underside.

Looking after your protection

Pressure wash the protection at least once a year, or two or three times a year if you regularly drive in mud or road salt. Check bolt tightness annually and follow the fitting instructions when refitting a plate after maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

Does fitting require drilling?

Yes. Two holes must be re-drilled for the M10 fixings on this application.

Do I need this before fitting the sump guard?

Yes. The matching engine sump guard mounts with this gearbox and transfer plate. Fit this one first or install both together.

What is included?

The protection plate, matching steel mounting supports, pre-installed fixings, certificate and instruction manual, and Almont sticker. Other guards linked on this page are separate purchases.

Will the plate rust if I scrape it?

The duralumin plate will not form red rust when scratched. Wash off mud and road salt to help prevent other corrosion and to look after the separate steel brackets and fixings.

Almont provides three years of cover against cracking of the plate. Dents, deformation and damage to the vehicle are excluded.
