Can-Am Defender (2026) HD11 Crew Side Steps

Take your Defender to the next level with our 2026 Can-Am Defender HD11 Side Steps, engineered to double as rugged nerf bars for maximum utility and protection. Whether you’re tackling rough terrain, managing daily chores on the ranch, or hauling equipment to the job site, these side steps are built to perform — providing easy access to your cab while safeguarding your UTV’s lower frame and plastics from rocks, stumps, and trail debris.

Built Tough for Real-World Use

Constructed from high-strength steel tubing and precision-welded for long-term durability, these side steps are made to handle whatever your Defender encounters. Each set is coated with a tough, corrosion-resistant powder finish, ensuring years of dependable service and a clean, professional look that complements your machine.

The integrated step plates with drain holes offer excellent traction even in the harshest conditions — from mud and rain to snow and dust. No more slipping when climbing in and out of your cab. These steps are designed to work as hard as your Defender does.

Dual-Purpose Design: Side Steps + Nerf Bars

Why settle for just one function? These premium accessories serve dual purposes — offering secure footing for passengers while providing trail-tested protection for your UTV’s sides. Acting as nerf bars, they absorb and deflect impact from brush, rocks, and obstacles, helping prevent costly damage to your Defender’s bodywork.

The contoured fit enhances your vehicle’s rugged profile while maintaining maximum ground clearance — ensuring no performance loss on or off the trail.

Easy, Bolt-On Installation

No drilling, no welding, no headache. These Can-Am Defender HD11 side steps feature a direct bolt-on design that utilizes factory mounting points for a perfect, secure fit. Installation can be completed with basic hand tools, making it an easy upgrade that adds instant value and protection to your Defender.
