Steve - I just took delivery on a 2017 Big Horn and had the dealer install Lippert "Solid Step". The advantage of these over the MorRde step is the first step out the door is 2/3 wider than all other steps. This creates a small platform so you don't have to look where your stepping. (comes in handy when your arms are full) Only drawback is it's 3-5 lbs heavier than competition, but I find its not a problem at all. After looking at the install, this is something anyone can do, It's only about 5 screws and you're done. Suggest you look into it.
Let me us know how they work out on your camper. I'm interested.I just ordered a set of the Morryde steps but haven't received them yet. From what I see in the installation video it looks like an easy 10 minute job. I bet even a Dealer could handle it, and they would probably only charge you $1000 labor.
Rex (rxbristol) has a set of the MORryde steps on his LM. I used them this past week and he showed me how to deploy them and put them away. Real easy. He also put a real cool, extra long SS handle on the side of the coach to replace the OEM one.
I got the Morryde step above installed the other day and it is awesome. The only problem is that they don't make one to fit out second door.
John - here's a link to the Stromberg Carlson site that has the handle that Rex had. I'm not sure which of the 3 commercial handles offered that Rex has but there are dimensions/drawings etc. to help guide one to a purchase decision.
John - I think Rex told me that he had to buy or make a spacer to fit between the wall and the bracket so the door laid well up against the closed door. Likely to clear the door lock handle.Thank Jim . . .
The AC530 (second from left) looks like the right one for us.
I was looking at the offerings at CW last week and the one with the larger grab rail that they carry has a different mounting distance between the two screw mounts than the stock grab rail, which would mean drilling more holes.
