New side steps for my 110 which ones?
OK so my original side steps I never liked really with the alloy tread cover, I would like black to match my truck


However over the past few years I have sanded and painted a few times and from a distance they look ok... However they need doing properly. Given the cost to do this is probably around the same as new side steps? I will also try ad fit fromt mud flaps to help save them a bit longer.


Seems I have 2 option, one similar to mine but the fire & ice option (all black)





Next looks like a platform step rather than round bar, but looks neat?






What do people think of either? Its going on this...

The ones in the middle pic look more like tree/rock sliders? They look like they fit a lot higher than the XS-Style side steps?

Better for off-road, but probably not good as a step for shorties??? Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

Looking at google images your right.

The other ones sit much higher and for the kids / Mrs not great


So that narrows my choice to the fire & Ice ones Very Happy

Safety Devices were prototyping some very nice rock sliding steps. Very nice but dread to think what they'll cost!

Just goes to show that one man's "very nice" is another's "absolutely hideous" .

Zed,


I'm with you they look horrible, just because they are made from a good company imho does not mean they are nice. Shocked

Looks like I've found some steel in the garage and had a go at welding... Rolling with laughter


Look like they would suit a 007 pickup replica but not a family truck Very Happy


Thanks for the option though Thumbs Up

I’ve got these step, and have them fitted for around 5 years now, they are only just starting to bubble a bit in one place. Only gripe is that, standing on the back end of them makes them rotate a little on the fixing bolts and make the steps go wonky, but this may just be that i haven’t tightened the bolts properly. I’ll get a photo for you tomorrow if you want?

Hello a picture fitted would be good.

I need ones that actually offer a step rather than rock or tree sliders

I have young children and a mother in-law that needs to be able to use them to help get in 👍
