    Rock Sliders for 2009 Defender?

    Hi Guys, I am looking for some advice on strong rock sliders - any recommendations? I want one that I can safely drop the side onto a rock with out it bending or shifting.
    Thanks in advance
    Darren.

    G'day Darren, I just recently finished fabricating my own. I used 75x50x3mm RHS. Powder coated finish.
    Cheers

    Think about the ones which have round jacking points on, similar to front and rear bumper. Hi-Lift jack with adapter fits straight into them.

    You can also get ones that are both rock and tree sliders, which look neat. C

    Have a look at these.
    Mulgo Side Rails for Land Rover Defender 110 | Buy 4x4 Land Rover Toyota Nissan Accessories and Parts Online Store | Expedition Centre Australia by Mulgo

    All of Mulgos stuff is first rate. I don't think you will damage these in a hurry. Definitely a future mod on my D 90.

    We have some very good pricing on Terrafirma Sliders, and our own products.

    A couple of people I drive with have Mulgo sliders, I too have them on my 110, and we give them a pretty hard time. I've rubbed through the paint and zinc coating on mine in several spots. They hold up well
    Easy to fit, locally made, ticks all the boxes for me.

    Hi there
    I have the TerraFirma rock and tree sliders. Very happy. Well priced. Fit well.....but they do have a gap between the bottom of the doors and the top of the slider. I am yet to see (in person) a Defender where they line up perfectly.....

    Thats because no Defender body panels ever line up, the sliders are fine its the defender thats not...

    We can supply you the TF810 for $570 plus shipping... Very good price cheaper than our own Landbitz ones and Mulgo's ones, and just as good..

    i just finished making muself a set, i looked at buying a set but just wasnt sure about the mounting and how strong the ones on the market were so i ust got out the welder and knocked some up.

    I used 50x75x3 rhs and for the mounts and bracing i used 6mm plate which i plasma cut to suit the shape of the chassis. Than the pipe is 44mm x 3mm

    Took me roughly 4-5 hours to make and about $60 for materials.
