Lippert Components 432687 24' Radius Corner Manual Step - Triple, 7' Rise , Black

These were not designed to just bolt up to a 30' 1987 5th wheel camper, but I'm an engineer. I don't worry about little things like that. The old, rusty steps on this camper when I bought it left me little choice. They were so bad my wife couldn't extend or retract them, but that was okay because she didn't trust the way they moved around when she stepped on them anyway.I ground away the old ones and did a rough alignment with the new to see how much it would take to make them feel right at home. I made new brackets and widened the support base a couple of inches, painted, welded, painted, aligned, bolted, etc., etc., etc. until I thought they looked acceptable.My wife loves them! She can operate them with one foot and says they are plenty sturdy.Good product! Even though I had to modify the trailer to fit them, I didn't do anything to the steps themselves. They work at least as well as I had hoped when I bought them.I gave these 5 stars for "easy to install" because it wasn't their fault I had to customize the installation. The way these steps are built, it actually helped make it pretty easy!

The description isn't correct. these steps are 27 1/4 at the top of the step frame. they were a perfect fit for our Cougar ultrlight travel trailer. 3 steps bowed. However, we removed the 4 bolts holding the old steps and supported the steps with 2 concrete blocks. we then folded the steps up and pulled the assembly straight toward us and out. that part was easy. it first appeared that the new steps were slightly wider than the frame they needed to bolt to. after some minutes of frustration we realized the brackets on the trailer angled inward at the bottom and we needed to install the new steps just like we removed the old. so we raised the steps to the height they would bolt in place at and forced them between the mounting brackets. then we got a block of wood and rubber mallet and tapped on each side of the steps frame until the mounting holes began to line up. at this point i used a scratch awl (screwdriver would work as well) and put it through the first hole to pry the steps holes until it lined up. got the first bolt back on, loosely. went to each mounting hole in turn until all 4 bolts were started. Tightened everything down. be sure the sqare base of the bolts seats tightly or you bolts could shear off over time. i had to push up just a but to wiggle 2 of the bolts fully into place. They work great, feel sturdy, and my step tread covers from the old set fit perfectly. we ordered the Lippert step support to attach under the lowest step to hopefully prevent the hinge bracket from breaking, which was the problem in the original steps (trailer was purchased used and one step hinge was already damaged). that part is due to arrive in a day or two. This is definitely a 2 person job, and requires one person to get under the steps/trailer to remove, line up new steps, and tighten the bolts. Removal and installation took about 1 to 1-1/4 hrs total.

Fit-up perfectly to existing bolt holes. No drilling required. Replaced a 2 step aluminum set that apparentlyis no longer available. If they made a model with 8" risers, Id have got that one instead as the distance from the ground to the first step is almost 10" so stepping up is a bit awkward. Also when you lower the bottom step its not level like the top & middle steps are. This IMO is poor craftsmanship as the stops were welded on a bit out of where they should have been.

Perfect replacement for a 2011 Keystone Springdale.

great product

easy to install. Fits perfectly.

Unit Not fabricated correctly!! Unit bolts in ok! Top step is level, second step is level but bottom step is 3/8 of an inch out of level. Bottom Step angles up towards the sky. The red level in the picture is held level manually but there is a 3/8 gap to the right hand (back side of step) that is a bit hard to see. Not funny. Don't recommend purchasing. The second issue is the " general sloppiness". The unit has enough play, side to side, compared to the old worn out unit, that it hits the side panel of the camper wall skirt. No impressed.Thanks 5-31-24

For some reason. these are 24-3/8" wide, other ones and my camper brackets are 24" so took some messing around with the brackets which stop somewhere below finish floor, if you are not handy modifying metal attachment points I would suggest replacing like for like. Operate really smooth, round bars to pull instead of flat strap. I like that. All in all happy with purchase.
