Load Capacity

The Defender 110 and 130 fixed side steps feature two step pads on each side.

Land Rover specifies a maximum load capacity of 270 kg (approximately 595 lbs.) per side, with a maximum of 135 kg (approximately 298 lbs.) per individual step pad for the Defender 110.

Fixed vs. Deployable Defender Side Steps

These are fixed side steps, meaning they remain permanently positioned beneath the vehicle's doors.

Compared with deployable side steps, fixed side steps:

• Have no electric motors
• Do not need to extend or retract
• Are always available when entering or exiting
• Provide a rugged exterior appearance
• Use a simpler mechanical design
• Provide convenient access to the vehicle's roof

If you prefer side steps that automatically extend when a door opens and retract underneath the vehicle, Genuine Land Rover Deployable Side Steps are a separate accessory system.

Fixed side steps are not compatible with deployable side steps or bright side tubes.

Important Off-Road Consideration

Land Rover notes that installing fixed side steps may affect the vehicle's off-road capability.

If maximum ground clearance is a priority for serious off-road use, this should be considered before installation.

For everyday driving, the fixed steps provide significantly easier access while maintaining the rugged appearance associated with the Defender.

What's Included?
