We can also arrange 'specials'. For instance lowered steps for 130 when people are shall we say vertically challenged.


Can you do some of those for a TD5 110 CSW??? This is exactly what I've been looking for... Dave

Brendon, are the prices right? 90 & 110 cost the same? Question



Whilst in the first instance it may seem odd that the 90 and 110 rock and tree sliders are the same price, with the 90 you need a tube extension whereas the 110 bolts to chassis outrigger.

Dave pm me with exactly what you require and I will get a price and delivery time for you.

Masai
Still looking around. Paddocks are galvanised, either raw, or with blackcoating on top of galvanised surface.

Ebay has Masai tree sliders for both 90 & 110. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tree-Sliders-Lan...4173041796

As you can see they have a plate (must be plastic of some sort for the colours) over the top. While what its made from may have arguable durability, the idea of a running board on top has greatly more appeal than tape on the round bars. If I bought the Masai, I would use non-slip tape, or stick heavy duty shed roofing on it (also to hide the garish colour).

But boards are an idea for FSX, CSK etc. Just need some "U" brackets, non-slip surfacing & I'll buy from whoever markets them first. (Going further, an angled lip at the front could help divert door sill-deep water away when wading. ) Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

I like the look of the Rocard rock sliders, although I dread to think what they cost. 2015 90 XS CSW TDCi - Beautiful
2007 110 XS DCPU - An itch that needed scratching
2005 90 Td5 XS CSW - Utterly brilliant
2001 Discovery 2 ES Auto - A phase I went through
1996 90 Tdi CSW - Uber reliable
1989 90 2.5 Petrol Hardtop - My first proper Landy
1985 Range Rover Vogue V8 -Troublesome

They are not cheap but in all fairness the price reflects the quality and design

FCX hope to be an accredited stockist of the ROCARD range very shortly
