Technical Overview

Heavy-Duty Front Underbody Protection

The engine sump and lower radiator area are among the most vulnerable components underneath the Prado 120. During off-road driving these components can be exposed to impacts from rocks, hidden tree roots, raised ground, deep ruts and other trail hazards.

This reinforced steel guard provides a durable protective barrier that helps absorb impacts before they reach critical engine components.

Designed for the Toyota 120 Platform

Although this listing focuses on the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 120 for SEO and vehicle selection purposes, the guard is also compatible with several other Toyota platform vehicles sharing the same chassis architecture, including the Lexus GX, Toyota 4Runner and Toyota FJ Cruiser.

This allows owners of those vehicles to benefit from the same heavy-duty protection while ensuring Prado owners find the correct application quickly.
