Protect your Patrol's fuel tank on the tracks you enjoy
Give the original fuel tank of your Patrol GR Y61 a substantial barrier against rocky ground with this Almont 6 mm duralumin guard. It is made for the 1998-2010 application, adding reassurance beneath a truck you want to keep using off road.
SKU: PDN61D6
SportDuty protection beneath the original tank
The plate weighs 11.5 kg and uses certified AW5083 H111 duralumin. It puts high-strength alloy between the tank and rough-ground contact, without the material weight of a steel plate of the same size and thickness.
Why we recommend Almont
The material is a large part of what makes Almont protection worth considering. Certified AW5083 H111 duralumin combines high strength with less material weight than steel of the same size and thickness. A scrape will not start red rust in the alloy plate, helping it stay a worthwhile long-term addition to your vehicle. Mud and road salt should still be washed off, including from the separate steel brackets and fixings.
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.

Matching protection
For a GR Y60 from 1989-1998, choose our separate Y60 fuel tank guard instead.
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.
