Protection, Recovery, Recovery Points, Underbody Guards

Ford Ranger Bash Plate and Recovery Point

24 Comments

This Heavy Duty Bash Plate and Recovery Point from Superior Engineering has been custom designed to suit the current model Ford Ranger. They will also fit the Mazda BT-50 (Series 2).

The problem with standard factory engine guards is that it’s made of plastic which are prone to damage in the event of the slightest impact, leaving your vehicles vital parts at risk.

This design flaw is the major cause of underbody component damage while offroad driving, due to the fact that it exposes your vehicle to damage from various obstacles such as rocks, logs, debris and bumps.

The difference with this new design guard over the factory Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50 guard is that this protection plate perfectly integrates into the vehicles design.

They protect the vital components without compromising performance and durability.

This NEW design allows for maximum protection to the front of the vehicle against potential damage to vital components like your engine, steering, radiator, sump, gearbox and front diff.

They are designed so they don’t cover up any of the crumple zones in the chassis, unlike most of the other guards out there which cover critical crumple zones.

Another advantage is the inclusion of the super heavy duty rated recovery point. Rated to a massive 5,000 kilograms, means this is something your can actually get your vehicle out of trouble with.

This Superior Engineering engine and gearbox guard is a small investment for many years of protection of your vehicles underbody.

Don’t get left stranded on the side of the track because you’re using inferior factory versions or cheap competitor copies just becuase you wanted to save a couple of bucks.

Upgrade to a Superior Engine Diff Guard kit and take home “Piece of Mind” that you’re buying the strongest guard in Australia.

Even the official Superior plaque is machined into the guard to ensure you are getting a true quality GENUINE component.
