Collection: 70 Series LandCruiser Underbody Protection

70 SERIES LAND CRUISER UNDERBODY PROTECTION AND BASH PLATES

SHIELD WHAT KEEPS YOUR 70 SERIES MOVING

70 Series Land Cruiser underbody protection is the gear that stops a single bad rock strike from ending your trip. Look under a stock 70 Series and the sump, transfer case, transmission, steering damper, and fuel tank are all sitting exposed to whatever rock, log, or rut you drive over. One bad hit can crack a sump, bend a steering arm, or punch a hole in the transfer case, all of which leave you stranded a long way from a tow truck. Quality 70 Series underbody protection puts proper steel or alloy armour between those components and the trail. For owners doing anything more remote than fire trails, it is one of the highest-value upgrades you can fit before something goes wrong rather than after.

3MM STEEL OR ALLOY ARMOUR WITH RATED HARDWARE

This 70 Series underbody protection range includes pressed 3mm to 4mm steel guards for maximum impact resistance, plus lightweight aluminium options for touring builds where every kilogram counts against payload. Front sump guards, transmission armour, transfer case shields, steering damper protectors, and fuel tank guards are all available individually or as full vehicle kits. Construction is engineered with proper drainage cutouts to maintain airflow over the engine and stop water sitting against the chassis. Each guard bolts directly to the 70 Series chassis with rated hardware sized for the loads the plate actually sees on heavy trail use.

FITS 75, 76, 78, AND 79 SERIES ACROSS GENERATIONS

This 70 Series underbody protection collection covers the full range. The 79 single cab and dual cab, 78 Troop Carrier, 76 Wagon, and older 75 Series across HZJ (pre-2007), VDJ V8 (2007 to 2023), and GDJ facelift (2024 onward) generations. The core chassis layout for the sump, transmission, and transfer case carries across most generations, so many underbody guards suit multiple eras. Front bash plates that interact with the bull bar mounting points are platform-specific because Toyota changed the front frame geometry with the GDJ facelift. Each listing confirms exact year and engine code fitment.
