A Deluxe Plus Tray from Norweld is proving to be the perfect choice for preserving the legacy of the V8 79 Series LandCruiser
With Toyota pulling the plug on the V8 79 series LandCruiser, any farmer who has one parked in the shed knows it isn’t going anywhere.
If you’re keeping yours for the long haul, it makes sense to fit a tray on the back that’s capable of lasting long term and standing the test of time.
Generations of farmers have relied on the 70 Series time and time again. And the 79 Series LandCruiser is an icon, more than just a Ute, it’s your office and your workshop.
Essential to your way of life, you trust your 79 series to start every morning, to get through the work day and home every night, and it’s even better with the advantage of a Norweld tray fitted.
The Tray every 79 series needs
Norweld trays are designed with over five decades of experience and have storage and functionality as the key functions in what is seen as the benchmark of heavy-duty aluminium Ute trays.
Durable, reliable and fit for purpose, Norweld trays have been used and abused for millions of kilometres by thousands of customers all around Australia.
The Deluxe Plus Tray is Norweld’s Legacy for the land.
Built tough for practical, everyday rural work, it’s packed with features that make life on the land easier.
Full-length rope tie-down rails run along both sides and across the tube headboard, so securing fuels pods, hay bales, fencing gear, or your quad is quick and hassle-free.
Industry-leading design functions include precision CNC Router and laser cutting, fully welded aluminium construction, and a one-piece 4mm high-tensile floor that combine for a strong yet lightweight tray that can handle heavy loads without breaking a sweat.
Clever secure storage for all your gear
The Deluxe Plus Tray features under-tray toolboxes which are perfect for storing tools, fencing equipment and a bit of recovery gear.
They’re built tough, with twin compression locks and a double-gutter system with extra rubber seals to ensure dustproof and waterproof storage.
Finished in durable two-pac colour coding, they look the part too.
Around the back, an integrated 1200mm dust-resistant rear trundle drawer, ideal for recovery gear, shackles and jumper leads.
With Drawer slides rated to hold up to 227kg, it’s solid with no rattles or squeaks, slides out smoothly and locks away tight, even after years of pounding paddock corrugations.
Set up your 79 series the way you work
The Deluxe Plus Tray’s heavy-duty design, using Norweld’s exclusive extrusions, delivers serious strength while staying true to the simplicity and reliability 79’s are famous for.
At the front, a 76mm x 5mm mandrel-bent tub headboard has built-in threaded bosses so you can mount one or two spare tyres, a jerry can holder, or leave it clear for larger loads.
The tray also has space for a 40L under-tray water tank and tap on the driver’s side, making it easier to wash up or rinse your boots off before jumping into the cab.
Built to outlast your 79 series
On farms and stations across the country, the V8 79 Series LandCruiser is part of the family, a vehicle relied on for the long haul.
Norweld builds its trays with the same attitude.
Since 1971, they’ve been producing heavy-duty aluminium trays designed to handle the demands of rural and remote work, backed by a Lifetime Warranty on Workmanship and nationwide support.
Constructed from marine-grade aluminium, every Norweld tray offers strength without the weight, delivering more usable payload, better towing capacity and proven durability in harsh conditions.
For those planning to keep their V8 79 Series for years to come, it makes sense to invest in a tray built to last just as long.
