Need new step

Postby ChuckWmson » Tue May 31, 2011 2:11 pm

My Safari is having trouble with the Kwikee electric step. I is a single step unit and I am wanting to change over to a 2 step model. Prices are out of sight, so I am looking for a used RV Parts stores here in So. Calif.

I seem to remember on in either Upland or Ontario, CA, I think on Foothill Blvd. I have searched online, nothing I see seems to ring the bell.

Does anyone remember this Used Parts Store?

I have a manual two-step set on my '93 TT, and it works well for me. It's not difficult to unfold, and it's nice and simple (cheaper to buy, less stuff to break, and easier to repair if it does).

Just something you might want to think about.

Russ I think that the electric steps would be better for a motor home.Hard to close manuals from the inside unless I missed something?

I had considered the manual step at one time. But, the reason for changing from a single step to two step is because when I get to the camp site and use the levelers, I sometimes find that first step would be 3 feet down. Even with a two step it sometimes is a longer way down than I would like.
