Got the Elkhart Quad. Love them. Only thing it took a long time to get the old ones out as they welded them in.Had to do a lot of cutting. New ones are bolted in (like the factory should have done in the first place). Have you ever seen steps all bent to **ll because someone drove away and left them down? I have. Bolting would have been so much simplar to repair. Because there is an extra step the stairs are a little less stable but not so much that you feel unsafe.

Your last comment "Because there is an extra step the stairs are a little less stable but not so much that you feel unsafe" makes me wonder if what you have are the best/heaviest duty 4 steps out there?

I have 3 steps on our MS and they are rock solid. I have been up and down friends 4 step that have a Cardinal and they are flimsy feeling to me. Now a couple weeks ago we looked at some new MS 5ers and the 4 steps were very solid.

I installed the Quadra Steps linked above. I did it by myself in about 45 minutes. I had to modify the bracket on the trailer a little with my Sawzall,, but all in all, it was pretty easy. It would have been much easier with somebody to help me, though.

You can go to Elkhart Tool & Dye web site and down load diagrams with measurements of the steps and more information.
