Tailgate Ladder for an 80

[Ecoman]

I'm looking for a rear ladder that bolts to/ hooks over the upper tailgate on an 80 series. I have been hunting around the various suppliers and keeping an eye out on ebay but all I can find are ones for the 100 series. Does anyone have one they no longer require or know where I may get my hands on one?

Any help will be greatfully received

If I get my Airtop I want a ladder too.

Already tried all the places suggested on there. Jaos only do racke for 03> and 90s

Patriot only do land Rover

Closest I have got is Direct4x4 and that is for a 100. Might be able to modify it to fit an 80 I may chance a call tomorrow.

I can post a piccy of mine if it might help with your hunt for one

Be warned though, The existing rams are not man enough to hold up the tail gate and even a light ladder like mine.
I need new/better rams but just use a piece of 2" x 1" at the mo

Are your rams the original ones Less, or have you replaced them at some time? do you think stronger ones are needed or just new ones. I replaced mine a while ago when the originals went soggy.

That would be great thanks ET. Would give me something to work with anyway.

Just pic of the ladder though I have a nice piece of 2"x2" that will do the job just fine

And I thought you would like to see my pit prop

Oh well here goes in case you still need it. It hooks on top and bottom and the bottom clamps are held on with bolts so no drilling required.
I think my rams are tired, I just can't be bothered ordering new ones yet

 

[Ecoman]

Thanks for the picture ET. It may come in handy as I still haven't had a reply from the portuguese place. I even took the time to get my email translated into the correct language.

I have just had a reply from Megastore 4x4 in Portugal.

"Roof Access lader Toyota HDJ80 – 155.00 Euros (VAT tax included), Shipping cost to UK – 28.33 Euros"

For that price I will order one. Anybody else want one?

Is that the one that mounts on the left hand side of the door? I need one that mounts on the right because of the spare wheel is on the left

 

[Ecoman]

Aye its this one
