I ended up going with the galvanized terrafirma rockslides/tree guards and had them powder coated. Also put on grip taped to avoid the tibia impaction fracture! These seemed like the best option because they don't affect clearance. 1999 Defender 110
2003 P38 2007 RR SC "And that's why it needs to be celebrated, because when the Defender goes we'll have lost this pointer to where we came from, and we're really going to miss it." My build thread: http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic47750.html |

Stainless tubular on mine, not much of a step but at least they don't rust like the originals

Dixon Fabrications tubular rock sliders, coated in Raptor & sand for grip.
I wouldnt fit anything else tbh the added side impact protection for on road driving alone is reason enough |

Ian series 1. I do like your stainless "steps". Did you have them made or were they off the shelf? Defender 90XS SW

Think I will be looking at the version the same as Carman has, Genuine.
Pricy though as per LR but seem pretty good. I'd be inclined to drill a small hole in the plastic end caps, and tap a thread and use a Stainless fixing as a removable cap to use Dintitrol internal wax on and off. I can see the merits of stainless, but I don't like bare stainless and the rest is mild steel but painted so that isn't a problem to me. Time to put the pennies away, lots of them by the looks of it.  ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️ |

We optioned the factory side steps on our '13 Puma 90,..option "048AP".
There is some confusion as to what actually are the correct items as there are some that look somewhat the same, but aren't. In view of some comments & images that I've seen on this forum regarding durability etc, I bought myself a spare set, which couldn't be bought as a set, only individually. The part numbers are LR029295(RHS) & LR029297(LHS). I also bought the supporting struts. Not cheap. Pickles. |
