Hi Folks,
I need some pointers here; my Patrol is pretty much fully rigged with exception of decent rock sliders with hi-lift jack points and I am keen to sort this. As per pic below it retains the factory fitted running boards which are only really usefull for reaching the roofrack.
Any pointers as to where to source these or alternatively, views as to who will do a good job of making some for me ... am based on West Rand, Gauteng.
Thanks
Rock Sliders?

Re: Rock Sliders?
Hi Peter
The nicest commercial rocksliders I have seen for the Patrol are made by Org Knoetze. They are about R5k for the Patrol though. Expensive, but good looking and very strong.
If you PM me your E-mail adress I can send you pictures and more details.

Re: Rock Sliders?
Oom Mac
Koop jy net gewone Ford rocksliders en pas hulle op onse Patrols en hulle pas reg tussen die "wheel arches"?
