NAS style rear step….. but not!
I like the look of NAS style rear steps. But I have a decent standard tow bar fitted with bracing all set at the right height and in good condition. I don’t fancy removing and replacing with the more budget NAS options that state not for towing on the road. The others that are OEM are expensive. Plus, lots mention the tow ball height is high…. And rust….

Anyhow, is there another option? Something that looks similar that bolts around a standard tow bar? Gives the look without being structural in the towing department?

I’d say the Bowler rear step would suit..Shame but one sold on here a day or so ago.

That looks decent. I’m assuming they come as a pair. Most websites show just one side…..

As far as I know it’s a pair, certainly advertised as such at Paddocks

I was going to say Bowler rear step, very nice but expensive. I did see someone had made an almost identical copy, but can't think who it was now. I'll be back if I remember. James

Thanks. Interested in a cheaper alternative. But that Bowler one does look the nuts.

K2 does a cheaper alternative to the Bowler Step. Looks very similar, but is about £170 cheaper.

Yes, those k2 ones are a good whack cheaper. Not quite as nice though. But a good consideration

I think somebody else does a similar one too. I’ll see if I can find it. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html
