ThreePointFive Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I would definitely not go for chequer plate when it looks so good as-is. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurbie Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 weld on a small strip off steel checker plate , much more in line with your fabrication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do, I'm thinking I may need something just to grip on when climbing in as it's around seven inches higher than it was before but I will get it fabbed up first and see what it's like getting in an out and make a decision based on that Regards Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreePointFive Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 In that case, I would go with someting like grip tape, given how terrible chequer plate is for stepping on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmmm, some nice orange grip tape available on the bay, cheap enough to try and throw away if not suitable Regards Stephen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Looking good - I'd add my vote for grip tape although black would be more tasteful than orange! Also as Dirtydiesel did on my rock sliders, a couple of ridges under each end (I think he welded 10mm bar width-ways) for a hi-lift to engage on is a decent little addition too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
