This RIVAL 4x4 three-piece bash plate set targets the radiator, engine and transmission — the trio of components that sit lowest and take the most punishment during off-road driving. Crafted from 6mm aluminium and weighing just 20.3 kg, it's a balanced package that provides essential drivetrain protection for Y63 owners who want front-to-gearbox coverage without the full four-plate kit. For many Patrol owners, this is all the protection they need for confident touring across Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Complete Underbody Protection — Radiator, Engine \u0026amp; Transmission Coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ High-Strength 6mm Aluminium Alloy Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Precision Fit for Nissan Patrol Y63 (2024–Present)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Corrosion-Resistant Powder Coat Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Ventilated Design for Optimal Airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Bolt-On Installation — No Drilling Required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Cost-Effective Bundle — Save vs Buying Individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Protected\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRadiator Bash Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e— The Y63's large-capacity radiator handles the cooling demands of its twin-turbo V6, but it's mounted in the firing line of every stone and stick kicked up by the front tyres. A compromised radiator means overheating and a forced stop — potentially in the worst possible location. This plate provides robust aluminium shielding across the full radiator area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine Bash Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e— The Patrol's advanced twin-turbo engine is a precision powerplant with a sump that sits exposed to underbody hazards.

Trail rocks and debris don't respect that expectation. A damaged transmission housing leads to fluid loss and potential gearbox failure.
