it is £99 i have put pics and fitting instructions on the australian 4wd web site as there is no way i can put a link on this forum or i cant see away to ,its in a pdf file ,,it dose look good and if you drive off road it is a must to protect the oil pan

I spotted the other day how little protection they have underneath Shocked

There is a company in the UK with some in stock (IIRC its "Up Country 4x4")

yes they do but it is an aftermarket one not isuzu ,so with theres you have to replace the standard front one as well so it gos from the front bumper to the transfer box and it costs more ,i was shown one on someones vehicle , so i went with the isuzu one as it dose not wast the standard front one and it fits well ,,there is some other aftermarket ones out there as well
