How much is shipping?
As this is a bulky item, freight is calculated based on your address with live rates shown at checkout.
Why choose steel over the factory side steps?
The factory side steps are primarily plastic, whereas ours are built from heavy-duty steel with upgraded 6mm mounting brackets. The result is a tougher side step that's better suited to everyday driving, touring and off-road use.
Do I need to drill into my Pajero?
No. These are designed as a direct bolt-on replacement using the supplied brackets and hardware.
Are these rock sliders?
No. These are side steps, not rock sliders. They're designed to provide improved durability and sill protection over the factory plastic steps but are not designed to support the vehicle's weight when contacting rocks.

ETA Early Nov | Give your Pajero a tougher, more durable alternative to the factory plastic side steps with a heavy-duty steel setup built for everyday driving, touring and off-road use.
We made a number of key design choices to add strength where it matters, including heavy-duty 6mm steel mounting brackets, a main tube that maintains its thickness around the entire side step, and a thicker steel mounting plate that is fully welded all the way through rather than simply tack welded into position.
The result is a stronger, more substantial side step built for long-term use, whether you're driving every day, touring, tackling corrugations or heading off-road. The steel construction also helps provide improved sill protection from stones, sticks and general track debris compared with the factory plastic steps.
The design follows the Pajero's body lines for a clean, factory-style fit, giving your vehicle a tougher, more premium appearance without looking bulky or out of place. They also provide a solid, practical step for getting in and out of your Pajero or accessing your roof setup.
Installation is direct bolt-on with no drilling required, and you get the complete setup with left + right steel side steps, heavy-duty 6mm mounting brackets and all required mounting hardware included.
Suits: Mitsubishi Pajero NM, NP, NS, NT, NW & NX Long Wheel Base (2000-2021).
These steel side steps are praised for being "solid and fitted as described" with customers noting they "look fantastic." Installation is generally straightforward though alignment can require patience. One customer noted bracket-to-step contact issues due to weld beads, suggesting minor load distribution concerns. Overall strong value.

Steps look really good, nice and solid and wasn't too difficult to fit. Just a bit of a faff aligning everything. Only comment for improvement (which is why I'm giving 4*) is the fitting of the bracket itself to the underside of the step. The flat underside face of the step that the bracket bolts to was often not totally flush to the bracket face due to the welds sticking proud of the surface. This means that small amount of weld bead is taking the brunt of any forces rather than the load being spread over the bolted faces as intended. As this is a step and not designed to take massive massive impacts i am not too worried but i might put some thin rubber in there if i get a bored weekend in future. This is all it would take to even that load out, or grinding the welds back before painting would do too. Otherwise really happy
Hi Freddie, thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad you're happy with the steps and appreciate your suggestions for improvement. Your insights help us enhance our products. Thanks and enjoy!
Awesome mate enjoy!
Fitted to a 2017 NX. Biggest challenge was removing the bolts from the original side steps as the front ones had rusted - lots of WD40 and a lot of force worked, broke 1 only. The supplied bolts do fit the existing retained nuts. The arrangment of the bolts may not be the same as on the video, but are obvious. The right angle brackets are sided and will only fit the side as marked - fit the middle braket first as it has less adjustment possible than the other two. The side steps are solid and look great when fitted.
Hey Robin! Thanks for writing a detailed review, happy that you are happy! Enjoy cheers!
Look fantastic and piece of cake to install.
Hi Brianna, we're glad you love the side steps and found the installation easy. Thanks for your review!
Great service, steps strong, fit well and look the part.
Cheers Gary!
