Keep enjoying your Pajero with its transmission protected
An older Pajero or Galloper still has plenty of trips left in it. This Almont guard helps protect the gearbox and transfer case you rely on, with 6 mm or 8 mm duralumin shaped for the V20-V50 and Galloper Super Exceed. It mounts with the matching engine guard to extend protection beneath the centre of the vehicle.
Extend protection behind the engine
A front guard cannot cover every part of the driveline. This plate continues protection beneath the gearbox and transfer case, making it a useful addition for rocky tracks and rough crossings. It relies on the matching engine guard, so the two parts need to be planned together.
Choose your version
Choose PDM20C6 for 6 mm SportDuty or PDM20C8 for 8 mm HeavyDuty. The required engine guard is PDM20B6 or PDM20B8; it is a separate purchase.
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.

You will need the matching V20-V50 / Galloper engine guard installed first. It is required for the mounting and is sold separately.
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
Can I fit this guard on its own?
No. The PDM20B6 / PDM20B8 engine guard must be installed first.
Which thickness would you recommend?
6 mm SportDuty suits lighter off-road use. We would choose 8 mm HeavyDuty for a heavily equipped vehicle and more demanding rough-ground trips.
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.
What does the warranty cover?
Almont provides three years of cover against cracking of the plate. Dents, deformation and damage to the vehicle are excluded.
