Enjoy taking your Land Cruiser or LX 570 off road

Your Land Cruiser or LX 570 has plenty to offer away from the road. An 8 mm HeavyDuty duralumin plate helps you enjoy that capability with more peace of mind, protecting the radiators, front differential, engine and steering from contact underneath. PDT20A8 is the version for the original bumper on either listed vehicle.

SKU: PDT20A8

Why we choose duralumin

Certified AW5083 H111 duralumin gives you strong protection without carrying the weight of a steel plate the same size and thickness. This high-strength aluminium alloy is a good choice for a vehicle already carrying passengers, fuel and camping gear: you get a substantial guard underneath while keeping the added weight down.

The duralumin plate won't rust when stones scratch its surface. The alloy forms a natural protective oxide layer that helps resist corrosion, a lasting benefit when you use your vehicle through wet winters and muddy weekends. It's one less thing to worry about underneath a truck you plan to keep.

8 mm HeavyDuty protection

At 8 mm thick, this HeavyDuty plate is our choice for heavier vehicles and demanding long-distance trips over rough ground. It puts a substantial barrier beneath the components listed below.

Off-road protection since 1992

Almont has specialised in underbody protection since 1992, with input from vehicle preparers involved in the Dakar Rally and other rally-raid competition. That experience, the certified material and the fit for your vehicle are good reasons to invest in it. We'd choose protection like this for a truck we've put time and money into and want to keep taking away.

For a Toyota with an ACAYX bumper

Our ACAYX-bumper plate fits the Toyota VDJ200 with that bumper. Choose PDT20A8 here for a VDJ200 or LX 570 with its original bumper.

Fitting and mounting

The plate bolts into your vehicle's original holes and threads using the supplied steel supports and fixings, with no need to drill new mounting holes. The certificate/instruction manual is included to guide the installation. Raised suspension is compatible when the original mounting points remain in place.

The plate needs the original chassis, frame, axle and suspension-stay anchors, transmission mounts and stabiliser-bar supports. Body lifts and diff-drop kits change that relationship and are incompatible.

Frequently asked questions

Does the same plate cover the VDJ200 and LX 570?

Yes. PDT20A8 fits both with their original bumper.

What comes with the skid plate?

Your skid plate comes with matching steel mounting supports, pre-installed fixings, a certificate and instruction manual, and an Almont sticker.

How do I look after it?

Give the plate a pressure wash once a year, or two or three times a year if you use it in muddy or salty conditions. Check the fixings for tightness annually as well. Follow the supplied instructions when refitting it after maintenance.

What does Almont's warranty cover?

Almont's three-year warranty covers cracking of the protection itself. Dents, deformation and damage to the vehicle are excluded.
