Nas style rear step for Defender 90 help.
Just wondering if anyone who has got a rear step like this one could help me...

Click image to enlarge

the kit only came with 1 what i would call a support beam, that goes from the step to the defender...

my question is should there be 2? one either side of the step, i took 2 off the towing kit which was on before so in my mind it makes sense for there to be 2 on this step.

any help would be great...

You can't get it inside too well without drilling holes, would small holes big enough for an internal spray tube compromise structural strength?

Have a look on Topix for the fitting instructions (assuming it's an OEM kit) - looks like you're a bolt or two short as well.

I'd also suggest moving the electrics, so there is no chance of them being pulled off by a stray branch...

Hello Mrpheasant

As has been said Yes...there should be two 'arms' in the kit...



and ... Thumbs Up to the 'protected' towing electrics position.
