L19MUD Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I want to fit some tree sliders to the 110 Hi cap, mine is modified though so I think normal 110 ones will be what I need I think tree sliders on a standard Hi Cap just replace the sill under the door up to the edge of the rear tub. The rear tub on mine sits at the same level as the bottom of the door (not the bottom of the sill) as the tub has been raised to get tipping gear underneath. Thus I think a standard 110 tree slider should fit. Can anyone show me how they fit on a standard 110? Also what measurement are they from end to end? I know the wheelbase is obviously the same but am unsure if the wheel arch hole is bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L19MUD Posted December 3, 2019 Author Share Posted December 3, 2019 I'm sure someone on here has a 110 with rock/tree sliders fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Mine had them, they were a home-made affair I believe. They bolted on to the bulkhead outrigger triangulation bracket at the front, and to the 2nd row footwell outrigger at the back. They sat below the structural sill member which remained, but they replaced the aluminium sill trim piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurbie Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 i have treesliders on my 3 door 110 , they bolt to the bulkhead bracket at the front , and at the (in my case) unused chassis outrigger just in front of the rear wheel , you have to remove the aluminium sill panels and they bolt up easy ... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thanks, sounds like they will fit. The outrigger on mine is used for the rear cab support as it is a truck cab (body on the Hi Cap is seperate. Would you mind measuring the length of them for me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurbie Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 taken some picture's of the mounting , there is 1 bracket missing on the treeslider , they were missing when i bought them . do you need the total length ? front mounting to bulkhead outrigger : rear mounting : and from the back towards the front : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurbie Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 treeslider at the front : some 16 cm from the front side of the bulkhead : total length is 182 maybee 182,5 cm : from the rear to the hart of the rear wheel is 49 cm : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My plan should work out perfectly. Will just check your measurements to mine tonight and get some ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L19MUD Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 Annoyingly as I initially suspected. The wheel arch is wider on the Hi Capacity so the tree slider will stick past the arch on the rear tub and look very odd. It would stick out by 9cm. I wonder if I fitted some wheel arch spats to it and then trimmed them to let the slider go underneath if it would look ok. Hmmm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve b Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 They are pretty simple , why not make a pair? Or shorten the new ones. If you're busy I can mod them for you . cheers Steve b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHarris Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Mine are quite different, combo tree/rock slider and steps. They work very hard and have protected me quite a few times... I'll work out how to get some photos on here for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHarris Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Ok, some photos done... I apologise for the torn mudflaps, did some heavy duty offroad work a couple of weeks ago (that's where the recent damage to the nearside slider happened, a couple of rocks hidden in some long grass over a deep hole!😲) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L19MUD Posted December 8, 2019 Author Share Posted December 8, 2019 Thanks all and thanks Steve for the offer. I think I will buy some and then modify them if I need to. There are some wheel arch spats on the shelf that have been waiting to get fitted and offering them up makes it look like the idea should work I want to fir the type shown on the blue hard top above as my sills are already off and it would tidy it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 An alternative style fabricated by Dan in finest unbendium; Outriggers beefed up too; Bits of rod welded under the ends to stop the Hi-Lift slipping out, should be mandatory on sliders & bumpers IMHO! A few quid's worth of steel and bit of chopping & welding, you could add a step to it to follow the line of the HiCap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLineMike Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 @SteveHarris they appear to be the stock genuine landrover side steps, had a set on my 110DC till recently as they had rusted away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
