For 1990-98 HZJ 76, 78 and 79 vehicles, this Almont plate puts 11.5 kg of laser-cut 8 mm EN AW-5083 H111 duralumin under the transfer box, catching the crest strikes and dragged rocks that the centre of a solid-axle Cruiser collects. The plate wears the damage; the increasingly precious hardware above it does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1990-98 HZJ 76, 78 and 79 trucks still working off-road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreserving a driveline whose spares are scarce and climbing in price\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners adding centre cover behind the matching classic front plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Almont4WD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: transfer box skid plate, HeavyDuty grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: PDT78B8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Application: Toyota HZJ 76, 78 and 79, 1990-98\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 8 mm EN AW-5083 H111 duralumin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 11.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment And Setup Checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck your build year: 1999-on trucks take the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/almont-hzj-vdj-grj-71-73-76-78-79-years-1999-24-transfer-box-skid-plate\"\u003elater 70 Series transfer plate\u003c\/a\u003e instead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe matching front cover for these years is the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/almont-hzj-70-71-73-74-75-78-79-years-1990-98-front-skid-plate-for-original-bumper-bj-70-71-73-74-75-years-1984-92-front-skid-plate-for-original-bumper\"\u003e1990-98 HZJ \/ 1984-92 BJ front plate\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn a truck this age, clean the chassis threads and free any seized fixings before fitting day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlmont4WD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransfer box skid plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePDT78B8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVehicle Application\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eToyota HZJ 76 \/ 78 \/ 79, 1990-98\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEN AW-5083 H111 duralumin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 mm (HeavyDuty)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does this differ from the 1999-2024 transfer plate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSame job, different truck: the two eras have different underpinnings, so Almont cuts a separate plate for the 1990-98 chassis.
