Big Truck RV on YouTube installed a set on his fifth wheel and documented it pretty well. Didn’t sound overly difficult and they’re pretty nice.

It’s on my list of things to do, but (as stated above) not cheap.

Not cheap? But, not that much more than a set of folding steps. I am thinking of getting a set of these too.

I installed them on my 2016 Eagle. Took about 15 minutes. They are wonderful!

That look like a piece of cake to install, thank you for the video I will probably watch it a few times.

It’s very easy and I would recommend you get the assist option as the stairs are heavy and awkward to lift and lower

The assist option I didn't think you can get them I thought maybe the dealer only but that is something that I have to check out thank you.

I ordered my MORryde steps through Amazon. It took less than 15 minutes to install and I had a problem with the current steps getting in the way of the new MORryde steps. Four bolts was all it took to remove the current steps and I measured twice and drilled once to install the MORryde steps.

Highly recommend them!

The wife love these steps, my wife is a big girl and need something solid going upstairs so this is ideal for us. We have our 5'er at an outside storage so letting it down and up is not a problem.

I installed these last spring and its the best thing I have ever added to a trailer. It really takes 15 minutes to install. They now have a storage box that goes where the old stairs fold up and that is my next project. I have a 2016 Jayco 29.5 Eagle HT and had to alter the gas prop rod that holds my door open. Drilled a hold to mount the ball stud. People are concerned about dirt or water when tilting up but really hasn't been an issue. Clean the steps and fold in.

Ditto! I ordered mine yesterday. I was waiting for a good price and got one from my local RV dealer who had an RV Show Special last week. $235.00 cash and carry for the 3 step model.

I get so giddy when I buy cool accessories for my TT.

Yes, this is a good mod I had to have the four steps one and since I had about $230 in Amazon money I order it from Amazon, along with the rail that attach to it. It should can in Wednesday or Thursday and I will be installing it Friday that's the plan anyway.

Saw these on some units we walked thru @ Quartzsite.

What happens to dirt/sand that is on the steps when you flip them in? Looks like no way to get into the trailer without pulling them out, we stop and use the bathroom or overnight @ truck stops when traveling. Is this correct?

I'll put a little wisk broom on a 3M Command Hook by the door and just sweep the steps off before flipping back up just for that reason.
