Rock sliders - fitting trouble
velcro:
I recently bought a discovery 1. It came with a new pair of rock sliders that were not fitted to the vehicle. Yesterday i got round to seeing how they fit but found that the ones i have are for a 5 door disco but i have a 3 dr :roll:. Could they be adapted to fit by cutting off the sill plate for the rear doors or will i need to by some 3dr sliders?
I held them up under the sills but they seem to have very little clearence between the tyres and the sliders. Are the 3 door sills shorter than the 5 dr and how much clearence shuld there be??
jimthelandyman:
There is a small gap inbetween my sliders and tyres and it's a 5 door, depends how oversized your tyres are mine are 265/75/16's.
mattyme:
ive got poormans old sliders off of hangover on my disco, jim. they just bolted straight on..... not much help for you tho dude, sorry!!
Range Rover Blues:
I'm not a big fan of sliders that bolt to the sills anyway, so cut that bit off.
THONG BOY:
hi i had a 5 door with sliders i the put them on my 3 door all i had to do was cut a bit of the plate of wher the bolts go through think it was about 5 inches of the back
