Does anyone know I can get a set of chrome side steps? Seen some on a couple of vans and really like 'em.

I got mine here: http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/HEST-Edel ... QQ_armrsZ1

I'm really pleased with them, good quality and dead easy to fit.

Cheers, what was the postage like cost and service?

I can't remember what exactly it cost, but I recall thinking it was quite reasonable. They arrived about 7 working days after ordering them.

Thanks Bob.
How do they attach to the jacking points (which way bolted?)
Just realised I may be able to ge som made.

Nice van btw.

There is a bar that slides into the round hole that the jack locates into, and then a stainless allen bolt that fastens it. And a clamp arrangement at the other end. Only downside is that you cant use the standard jack with them in.

I'm Ben by the way, who's Bob!?

Sorry read your username wrong!

Could you post a picture of the braket at some point?

Will take some pics tomorrow in the light and put them up.

Looks good, are they wide enough to use as a leg up into the van?

They're too close to floor height really. Chickenkoop and I are toying with a version that would provide a useful step too and slide out when you open the door and retract when you close it. I think we sussed the mechanics of it but not progressed the project over the winter due to weather and other commitments. It would sit an inch or two lower than these ones.

i had them fitted to my old van, got them off that ebay crowd in germany, can't remember what shipping cost but they looked good

never used them as steps, they where more for aesthetics

Shiney shiney, likey likey.

Goin to order some

Im making a set for mine as Im starting the rebuild soon, not sure wether to go painted or zinked , will be fitting a repeater in the front and rear!

I made my own out of stainless tubing and Delron lugs that fit into the original jacking points, threaded to take a stainless allen bolt. This holds them in but can easily be removed if jacking required. Wooden domes at each end of the tube

will try to get some pics up later

cheers
