Thanks Truckster,
The wanted ad is a great idea.....I had allready tried Capral, but they say they do not stock it (I thought they would)
Thanks

Also worth giving Hills a call. They have some good discounts at their remainders outlet in Raglan St. But just what they have in stock at any point of time is a bit of a gamble. I picked up some alum. QBLOk and joiners there for a good price.

I did some work for Qld Bullbars on their side steps, but can't remember where they got their section.
Just checked Alspec (
Adelaide 8354 2266) and Olympic, not listed either.
Closest I can find is Capral
seat profile EL2327A, in 2m, 4m & 6m lengths or Capral plank profile M649203 in 3m,4m,5m,6m lengths.
Maybe ring some side step manufacturers and ask if they would sell you a length for a special job?

Good to hear,
Alspec and Olympic are a bit smaller and willing to do special sections, so I guess they may have done it for some one else and still have the dies.

Why do you want to travel to
Adelaide to get this stuff? Surely you can buy it in your local town ?

Maybe worth calling in to Gitshams in Wingfield to see if they'll sell you some?
