Rear step

[Carefant]

My old model Defender 110 had a diddy double step like the one pictured, which was clamped in place behind the tow ball. Something similar is needed for my Grenny as it’s just too much of a clamber for my short legs to get in or out of the back unaided . Wondered if anyone has come across one that works well on the Grenny (or a design that doesn’t work for some reason)? Cheers

Yes! It’s on here somewhere. Someone else has a setup like this. I’ll start looking but I know it’s here.

It’s here somewhere, I know it is, but I can’t find it. Grrrrr

I was thinking that maybe we need a Forum for Add-ons...or the like because I posted my Table no Rattle idea on,

What did you do with your Grenadier today?​

I would be happy if I was able to go, like you back to a Forum for the Bolt-ons or whatever would be a good name...happy motoring

I fitted one of these. Works very well!! Available on eBay..I bought mine at a local spare parts store A$100.
Made from aluminium. Fits the Grenadier tow assembly no problems. Don't have to dismantle anything. Bolts on "as is".

Installed this one and it fits perfect to climb into trunk and onto the rear ladder.

Looks great. Can we see a picture of the install and what brand or place to purchase please?

uhmm the illustration doesn't match the standard 50mm Australian spec towbar setup...

This is bolted on my one through the standard tow ball holes. The towing plate is a receiver type that i had off the Landy.

Many thanks for this. I’d not seen this design before, presumably because the UK tow ball fitting is different. However, the steps for the non-UK 2”receiver look neater to me. I think I know the answer, but can anyone confirm if the latter are legal in the UK?

This is the best place I think.

I’m guessing that isn’t Hayman Reese but a Chinese knock off.

I think I’d prefer to spend the extra $50.

That is a big bit o'steel! How much does one of these weigh?

The genuine ones are cast aluminium. Very light (~2kg) but strong enough...120kg weight limit.

Just got around to mounting this,

Single step allows me better access to rear when both doors are open, helps keep some skin on my shins !
