Give the original fuel tank beneath your Hilux Vigo a substantial duralumin barrier. This Almont 6 mm SportDuty guard is for the 2005-2016 application, adding reassurance when your pickup is working or travelling away from tarmac.
SKU: PDTHLD6
The high-strength AW5083 H111 plate protects the tank underneath without the material weight of equal-size steel. It is a practical addition for a Hilux you intend to keep using through muddy work sites, rocky lanes and winter roads.
This is certified AW5083 H111 duralumin: a high-strength aluminium alloy that keeps material weight below steel of the same size and thickness. You get a substantial barrier beneath the vehicle, and a scratch in the plate does not turn into red rust. It is still worth keeping the alloy and the separate steel mounting hardware clean, especially after winter salt or muddy trips.
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.

For the original fuel tank and original mounting arrangement. A larger replacement tank needs protection matched to it.
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.
The separate Vigo front guard and transmission guard protect farther forward; the transmission guard requires the matching Vigo front guard.
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.
Yes. This tank guard is the 6 mm SportDuty version.
No. It is shaped for the original tank.
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.
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.
