The current Ranger and its Amarok twin leave the factory with very little under the floor. One rocky trail or a set of deep ruts is enough to show how low the radiator and the sump actually sit. This five-piece Rival set solves that in one go, along the full length of the underbody.

The plates cover the radiator, engine, gearbox, transfer case and fuel tank — a continuous shield from the front bumper to the middle of the truck, with no gaps between the panels.

• Material: 4.0 mm aluminium — it flexes on impact and springs back, without loading the front axle the way steel does.
• Colour: silver, bare aluminium.
• Mounting: factory mounting points, complete fitting kit supplied with the set.

Fitment: Ford Ranger from 2022 and Volkswagen Amarok from 2022 with 2.0 l bi-turbo and 3.0 l diesel engines. Rival covers both trucks with a single part number.
