ENGINE SKID PLATE SUMP GUARD

[garygiles1963]

Hi

As it looks like I will be doing a lot of dirt track driving in the Pyrenees, should I be looking at installing some underneath protection on my 120?

Something like this?

If so is this a good one to purchase or should I be looking else where?

Regards
Gary

How bad are the tracks? I do a few miles every day on rocky farm tracks. Potholes but no big wash outs or heavily tractor-worn sections. The factory plate has been fine for me. Got a few dents but nothing serious.

Not a bad Price. the stock guard is pretty good if it hasn't rusted away.

I agree. The OE one already on the truck is pretty good. Mine has taken a few knocks and slid around the odd mud track with good protection. One thing you need to be careful with is ventilation, the small grill on the guard has a tendency to get jammed full of mud

A weight saving advantage maybe ?
