Anybody had any experience with these?
And if positive, do you know who makes them.

I got one from frontrunner, but it is not compatible to my wheel carrier from Nakatanenga unfortunately :( so choose carefully.

Cheers,

Thanks for the advice and the pointer to where you got it.

Was looking at steps yesterday as the one I had on the vehicle had to come off to fit the Rijidij rear wheels/jerry can holder. Mulgo sell the frontrunners (Strap On Wheel Step - Front Runner (http://www.expeditioncentre.com.au/online-store/browse-by-category/racks-awnings-tents/roof-rack-ladders/frontrunner-strap-on-wheel-step-.html)) but I'll probably either cut down the one I have and re-weld the bottom bracket to mount higher of get one of these Defender 90/ 110 2Pc Rear Mount Ladder - Front Runner (http://www.expeditioncentre.com.au/online-store/browse-by-category/racks-awnings-tents/roof-rack-ladders/frontrunner-defender-90-110-2pc-rear-mount-ladder.html)

Cheers. There's not much price difference is there.

Some people must have short legs. This isn't as bad as some of the ladders on the market, but heck, I just step up to rear crossmember level and grab the rack, step onto the spare wheel, then hop onto the rack...
