Thread: Sidesteps for Fender 110

I know that's what a lot of us have done. I had mine done a few years ago and it cost me sweet stuff all. Couple of cartons if I remember, and about $70 in metal etc.

That's a cool idea... I might investigate that.

I've also found these that MR automotive can get.

Hi there Captain
If you're still looking for steps, i found the ones from your first post (photo) and the ones i happen to have! Was browsing and saw them on the troutbeck site, same stuff - thick pipe with checquer plate on top. As mentioned before, they are very strong and because they protrude a bit out the side of the vehicle, have saved my doors many times from idiots in the car-parks!
See you on Fraser 8)

Hey thanks for that! I have also found these from bearmach.



I need to investigate more about how they are attached. MR can get these in so that's a real positive.

I will look for your steps tonight.

I'd like to get some made up but I don't have the knowledge/time to do this in the short term

See the bearmach catalog here.

Rang Scorpion and they said they have them on order and expect them in 6 weeks... price will be 825 + $100 for post... bit pricy..

$925 is not bad.
The set i made for myself dont have the side bar and/or step. if i made some i would be after about $600-700 for just the slider.

If you price sliders like the Scorpion ones you will find them about $800-$1000

thats weird, 'cause I have TJM ones on the Crew Cab !
These are the type that go from the bull bar back, and have been modded on the drivers side as I have an LRA sill tank, so the rear chassis pickup has been moved rearwards.

I have a friend that is a wholesaler, and I am in the process of seeing if he can get me some Scorpion racing rock/tree sliders. They are basically rock sliders, with a pipe welded outside to fend off trees. Checker plate can be attached to the top of these to make a steep. Don't know how long this process will take however. Might be able to do a bulk buy.
Check out their site at:

Good luck,

Hmm, Scrapiron have a pretty poor reputation on the Pommy boards for ethics. Try Simon at http://www.x-eng.co.uk/X-Store.asp?SL=10&MID=3 for your UK sourced rock sliders, although I dare say someone here could make them cheaper.

Sorry, yes TJM do their own sidesteps that link in with their bullbar. I didn't go down this road as I don't have a tjm bullbar. If you want any choice other than this one you're on your own. Also, the bars in the first pic were supplied to noddy by ARB, and it would appear it was a local arrangement because the headquarters didn't know anything about it
