Running boards. Rock sliders

[Howmanygoes]

After a bit of laning over the weekend I have managed to shake my passenger side running board off its mounts on inspection it’s a wee bit rusty.

After some google bashing there doesn’t seem to be many options for aftermarket, unless importing them from overseas. I still have AHC currently but may be swapping out the system. Anyone any suggestions for suppliers.

Have you tried "Direct4x4" ?

I saw these direct 4x4 ones in the flesh. That seemed more of a step than a slider. Anyone have experience of these?

Thanks. Seen these and they look a bit cosmetic. Looking for non pimp and practical.

I have read through some historical posts on this topic. Was just hoping things had changed but appears not.

Euro 4x4 have something very basic available, looks like they need finishing.

Tell a welder you want the steps bolted to the chassis instead of the body and whatever you end up with will be a damn sight stronger than original which were after all only designed to take the weight of a couple of fat men .

I've found companies don't want to know when you mention a vehicle but gumtree and the likes might come up trumps on a welder for cash .
