Frequently asked questions

What is the TF857 transmission guard used for?
The TF857 transmission guard is an aluminium underbody skid plate that protects the gearbox and transfer box casings from impact damage. It bolts beneath the transmission on the Land Rover Defender, shielding the housings from rocks and trail debris during off-road use.
Which Land Rovers does this aluminium guard fit?
This aluminium transmission guard fits the Land Rover Defender with 300 TDi and Td5 engines. Fitment follows the standard transmission and transfer box layout for these models, so check your casings and crossmember match before ordering.
Why choose an aluminium transmission guard over steel?
Aluminium gives a lighter transmission guard than steel, cutting the weight added under the Defender while still shielding the casings from impacts. It's typically chosen where weight saving matters, though a steel guard usually resists sharp-edged rock strikes better.
Can the TF857 guard be fitted at home?
Yes, the TF857 aluminium guard can typically be fitted at home using basic hand tools. It bolts to existing points beneath the transmission, so cutting or welding usually isn't required, and its lighter weight makes it easier to hold in position.
