    Bushskinz bash plates

    What combination of bash plates do you reckon out of the intercooler / Sump / Auto DiD Transmission / Transfer Case plates will be necessary

    Probably depends on what you want to do. Rocks, beach, wombat holes.A full set of four are fairly heavy and can be a right pain when it comes time for service.

    We always have the intercooler on and put the sump guard on for track work.

    With all four on there is very little air flow. Don't know if that's bad but worth a thought.

      I don't have the bushskinz but have boos bash plates. I have all four on all of the time. Nothing has been mentioned when car has been in for servicing. Boos bash plates are a lot cheaper as well

            Bushskinz are 4mm compared to 3mm and are zinc painted. Bushskinz have also been a great supporter of this forum with his special deals. The product quality and his support of the forum saw me purchase his product.

              I leave mine on all the time too. A full set of Boos which saved me big time when I hit some loose rocks on my last outback trip. Never been an issue for servicing.

                How often does he do special offers? And how would I find out

                  Every couple of months or so. I,ve bought at the right time. Failing that send him an e-mail and ask when he will be doing a pajero forum deal again..

                    I went for a full set of Bush Skinz and they stay on all the time. A bit heavy/awkward to remove for service, but it's not necessary for normal oil change. The first time I got someone to do a service, they said they had to remove the 2 rear guards, said it took a while and charged me accordingly. The next service I did myself on a friends hoist. Put a 2 litre ice cream container under the filter and all OK. I then replaced the filter with one that has it's own drain plug, so next time it will be even easier. I switched mechanics after that.
                    I do most of my long distance driving in outback and northern Australia, and had no dramas with heat. Not towing though.

                    Cheers

                      Cheers guys, on a side note, does anyone know if the intercooler bush skinz plate will fit a genuine Mitsubishi alloy protection bar?

                        I've got a steel genuine Mitsubishi bar and a bushskinz intercooler cover with no problems. The bar has nothing to do with the intercooler cover.

                          I've got the MM alloy bar and there's no issue with the bash plate fitting.

                            Bushskinz the Go

                            Bought the full set from Kieron at Bushskinz with the forum discount deal. Arrived a few days later. I went the Bushskinz as they are ultra strong. Down side a bit heavy. They stay on all the time, no extra charge for 15k service. They have saved the GLS Paj many times in the high country and I wouldn't fit anything else. You get what you pay for. I suppose horses for courses also, for ultimate protection in my experience Bushskinz have been superb.
