The steel tray offers a high level of strength which makes it ideal for heavy-duty applications. Its sturdy construction allows for the transportation of heavier items.

Upgrade your Toyota Hilux with an alloy tray

When it comes to upgrading your Toyota Hilux, the perfect option is an alloy tray. Made from lightweight materials the alloy tray offers several advantages over steel. Firstly, the use of alloy materials reduces the overall weight of the tray which results in improved fuel efficiency and handling. This is especially beneficial for off-road enthusiasts who require a nimble and agile vehicle. Additionally, the alloy tray is resistant to rust and corrosion.
