Lippert Components 432698 Alumi-Tread Quad Manual Step

I have always trusted the quality of Lippert products. The measurement width is about 1/2" shy of what is listed on Amazon, but for me that turned out to be a good thing. This is a two person removal of the old steps and installation of these Lippert steps. I had to upgrade from a 3 step to a 4 step because I had to have a lift kit installed on our 5th wheel. I should have rated this product with 4 stars because it did not come with new mounting hardware, so I had to reuse the hardware from the 3 step I removed.

Looks original on the RV. Sturdy and works as original. Easy to install. Definitely a good choice to replace a broken stair.

The Lippert Components 432696 Alumi-Tread Triple Manual Step was an exact fit for my 2015 Highland Ridge RV and was easy to install. It is so much more solid than the factory steps and I am very satisfied with them. They look much better also with the aluminum step inserts. I highly recommend. Measure the existing steps carefully before ordering.

Hanger Box was already on camper. This step fit exactly in said box. Cutting skirt was not a problem, cut 1.5 inches long, and folded it back with a rubber hammer. Staples held as a finish. Replaced a factory set of Lippert Solid Step. That thing is terrible, , jams door, heavy and hard to store, and deploy, dumps sand and water inside camping unit, NOT a well planned update! These traditional steps are a VAST improvement over the Solid version. Door now closes, and we have a nice sturdy set of steps. Installed the triple step version, perfect fit, If you are tired of the hassle of Solid Step, get this piece of equipment, 2 hours work, and you are good to go! used a floor jack to lift the set in place, no hassle at all. Dealer quoted over $500, plus labor of making a box. They did not even know the box was installed!What a rip they would have been!

They look nice. They feel sturdy. However, the frame is 1/2 inch wider than on the Lippert steps I replaced (28 instead of 27 1/2). They're also taller. Was able to remove the angle trim off the opening, to make room enough to force the step assembly in, so it worked for me. I will make some new trim that doesn't wrap into the opening. I would buy again, but for some applications this step assembly will be too wide, and too tall.

Great, exact replacement

Just what i expected from Lippert. Very well made and went in very easy. Looks great, works great.

I ordered one of these from Amazon as a "used/ like new" item. When I received it in the original box it had a few tears from the item inside punching through. When I opened it there were not internal packing materials and the item was pretty damaged. All the corners of the base were bent, the top bar was bent, and the top stair scraped when I tried to DePoy the stairs. I figured that someone had returned it without any packing materials and when reshipped it was damaged. Not taking any more chances I purchased a second one locally and picked it up myself. I was shocked to see that the original packaging just had the stairs dropped into a regular strength cardboard box. The stair mechanism was not even restrained. This is totally not shippable in this condition.With regard to the unit itself, it seems to fit per the specs and deploys nicely. I like that it is somewhat lighter than the unit I am replacing. The rubber strips on the top look like they don't fit into the grooves evenly and after a little bit of work trying to get them to seat, I was unsuccessful. Time will tell how durable these stairs are over time.
