Built for supported V60\/V70, V80\/V87 and V90\/V97 automatic applications, this skid plate helps shield the centre driveline section using certified Duraluminium AW5083 H111, with 6 mm SportDuty and 8 mm Heavy Duty choices to match how hard the vehicle is used. Compared with leaving the gearbox and transfer section exposed, it gives your Pajero a tougher sacrificial surface for underside contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePajero drivers using rocky lanes, rutted access roads, worksites or touring tracks where underside knocks are realistic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic transmission vehicles where the centre driveline section needs added shielding from debris and scraping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners choosing between SportDuty 6 mm and Heavy Duty 8 mm armour based on expected use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds where material proof matters, with certified Duraluminium AW5083 H111 instead of an unknown generic plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy It Is Worth Choosing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gearbox and transfer case sit in a vulnerable underside position when a Pajero drops into ruts or rides over loose stone. A plate in this location is there to take or deflect hits before they reach important driveline parts, helping reduce the chance of trip-stopping damage from ground contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Almont choice is practical at ordering stage too: SportDuty 6 mm is the thinner option in this product family, while Heavy Duty 8 mm gives a thicker shield for harsher use. Both use the same certified alloy specification, so the decision is mainly about the level of contact you expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Almont\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e skid plate \/ underbody armour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e PDM860B-AUT base reference; SportDuty 6 mm PDM860B6AUT; Heavy Duty 8 mm PDM860B8AUT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle Application:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mitsubishi Pajero V60\/V70, V80\/V87 and V90\/V97 automatic applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear ranges:\u003c\/strong\u003e V60 1999-2007; V80\/V87 2007-2015; V90\/V97 2016-2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e certified Duraluminium AW5083 H111\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 mm SportDuty or 8 mm Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitment type:\u003c\/strong\u003e vehicle-specific\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Items:\u003c\/strong\u003e selected skid plate in the chosen thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuyer Checks:\u003c\/strong\u003e chassis code, year, automatic transmission and FAP equipment when available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIncluded Components vs Compatible Accessories\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product sells the selected skid plate for the protected driveline section in your chosen thickness.

The Pajero must be the relevant automatic application, and FAP equipment should be checked where it applies to your vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause Pajero import, market and chassis details can vary, match the V60\/V70, V80\/V87 or V90\/V97 code with the year range and underside layout before fitting. If the vehicle has previous underbody modifications, non-standard brackets or other armour already installed, check the setup before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow It Changes An Underside Knock\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a rocky climb or rutted site entrance, the first scrape under the centre of the vehicle can decide whether a knock is just noise or a component hit. This plate gives the automatic transmission and transfer case a physical contact surface beneath them, so stones and ledges meet armour before exposed driveline hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlmont\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSkid plate \/ underbody armour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePDM860B-AUT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSelectable SKUs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSportDuty 6 mm - PDM860B6AUT; Heavy Duty 8 mm - PDM860B8AUT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVehicle Application\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMitsubishi Pajero V60\/V70, V80\/V87 and V90\/V97 automatic applications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear and Chassis Details\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eV60 1999-2007; V80\/V87 2007-2015; V90\/V97 2016-2021; check FAP-equipped fitment details\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertified Duraluminium AW5083 H111\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThickness\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 mm or 8 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProtected Area\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic transmission, gearbox and transfer case section\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich thickness should I choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose SportDuty 6 mm if that matches your normal driving and the orderable variant you want.
