Side steps with rear AC

[Chubba]

Has anyone had steel side steps or rock sliders installed where they have had a rear air con?
ARB say on their website that the AC pipe work along the chassis rail prevent them from being installed. Anybody have experience with this?

G'day Chubba, I'd imagine they are worried about the 'clamp' over chassis type mounting systems. I'm sure they could flex out the lines but may still rub back hard afterwards. My new Millweld sliders are outer side chassis tapped plate and welded on as per Mill's fitting pick below: http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2017/05/136.jpg

Are they actually legal, didnt think you could weld then bolt to the chassis

Technically no. It's not legal to modify the chassis at all.
Mine is the same as MB's and is the strongest way you can mount the sliders.
