Hi all yea I'm still about
As you most know I'm now in a 200 Series L/Cruiser as I found the Paj was a little to hard on the old bone in the back..
Well after setting up the Cruiser with similar mods plus a GVM up grade I've found over the last 6-8 months my back has degenerated & I was struggling to get in & out of the beast..
So after talking to my mates at Creighton's TJM, I researched Electronic Side Steps and pretty quickly put my concerns aside in regards to how they'd stand up to Off Road use.
They are rated at 300kg per side & I can say without doubt more solid than the stock alloy on the Cruiser's & Pajero's. On top of that they tuck up higher anyway, (well in the case of Cruiser, so I'd expect that in the Paj too). So concerns aside it came down to TMax & Clearview.. Both rated same 300kg. From my research I went with Tmax as they had dual motors per side over single on the C/View & also came with an extra 12 mths warranty.
They bolt straight onto existing points no holes need drilling wire straight to Aux battery, (in my case), have LED lights which shine down on step when in use & have an override S/W so you can turn off for Off Road if they could hit on use, (Note: was surprised this S/W is under bonnet, so make sure if you do get.. "ASK" them to put in cabin), the steps also auto stop if you forget to hit over ride or for some reason a leg or item gets caught on closing.
So for those with back issues it’s a no brainer fantastic mod
