This Transmission skid plate requires using a drill to widen two existing holes in the rear crossmember from 9mm to 11mm (7/16") and then inserting 2 nutserts. All installation hardware is included.
 
Available in either 3mm or 4mm thickness. 3mm is plenty for most users but for the extreme rock crawlers, 4mm is significantly stronger.
 
NOTE - We believe this skid plate was originally designed for manual transmission Gen2 Pajeros in Australia and as a result we have had to drill 2 new holes for the rear mounting locations corresponding to the automatic transmission crossmember found on most USA Monteros. The only downside is that the inside of these 2 (forward most) rear mounting holes is not zinc plated. So you might want to put a little paint on the inside of these holes to protect the raw steel if you live in a rust prone environment.
 
 
 
These famous Pajero bash plates from Down Under have finally made it to the USA!
 
Boo's Bash Plates are 100% Aussie made using state-of-the-art laser cutters and computerized brake presses for a perfect fit. All plates feature silver zinc plating that not only looks great but offers superior rust and corrosion protection. 
 
When it comes to building a 4x4/overland rig, our recommendation is to always start with getting the vehicle caught up on maintenance so that it won't leave you stranded. But next, we believe armor should be a top priority. Before aftermarket wheels, before roof top tents, slide out kitchens, and light bars galore - protecting your vehicle's critical (and expensive) driveline and suspension components is always money well spent if you're going to play past where the pavement ends.
 
*NOTE - While every effort is made to protect the skid plates during production and shipping, minor scuffs and scratches are a normal occurrence.
