Side steps

Hi,

I am thinking of getting a set of side steps for my "W" reg discovery.

Has anyone any recommendations for any make of these mainly with an eye to
ease of installation. I do not wish to drill holes in chassis if possible.

TIA,

ErnieH

the ones Paddock sell are non-drilled, ISTR; as, I suspect are many of the
third-party ones. The ones from Paddock look near enough like the genuine
ones, if that bothers you. I believe they work by some sort of clamp
system.

Dunno what yours has underneath but the air tanks if it has Air suspension
may provide extra fun but I doubt enough to cause a problem.

On a RRC it's a case of drill 4 holes..., remove body to body outrigger bolt
(this was the only hard bit.. what a 84s**rd and then bolt up the board.
