Sill options

joe27979 · Mar 4, 2014

so my series 3 88" didn't come with any sill panels.
they are pretty pricey to buy complete with brackets-I've seen a few sliders about for a series.. shall I splash out on sill panels or are sliders a better option-if so who makes decent ones.

I only use my series for gentle greenling and the odd bit of rescue work in winter

if your laneing mate id get sliders mate cause if you buy sills and band them up your gonna be gutted ,,theres two sizes of sills and smaller ones are cheaper ,40pound ish bigger ones are like hens teeth ,slideres are about 60 ,so kinda makes sense imo

Sliders will also add some side impact protection.

joe27979 · Mar 4, 2014

cheers guys, sliders would make a bit more sense.

would love a set of jackable ones but bet they are gonna be pricey!

Paddocks sell the deeper s2 sills now. Sills look better than sliders IMHO

Could you not make a set of sliders? Would be cheaper than buying a set.

Made these for my 109 earlier on
