LandCruiser 79-Series Trays: Steel, Alloy & Custom Fitment
The Toyota LandCruiser 79-series is the toughest cab-chassis on the road — and it deserves a tray that matches it. Duratray builds heavy-duty aluminium and steel trays for the 79-series single and dual cab, fitted at our Capalaba (Brisbane) workshop and delivered Australia-wide.

Choosing a 79-series tray
The 79-series gets bought for serious work — mining, agriculture, civil, remote touring. Most owners pick a reinforced alloy build for the weight saving (more payload, less rust); heavy industrial users go steel. See our aluminium vs steel guide.
Typical 79-series tray sizes
| 79-series cab | Common tray length | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Single cab | ≈ 2,400 mm | The classic mining/ag build |
| Double cab (VDJ79R) | ≈ 1,800 mm | For crew + load |
Widths around 1,800–1,900 mm to suit mine-spec pallets and load patterns.
