Quad Steps

My Durango currently has 3 steps and the drop after the bottom stair is usually large. I was looking to go to quad steps and liked the Lippert aluminum steps. My Durango has a 27.5" opening and the best I can find is these will not work:
Lippert Quad 432698 AL Step

Their documentation is rather poor for the dimensions.

The Elkhart seems like it would be a better fit and they are showing their dimensional prints:
Elkhart Tool S-1424-ALUM Quad Step

Anyone have thoughts or preferences here?
Thanks,
Bryan

    Another option is the Torklift Glostep. We have these and love them. A solid step that stores outside. I also would avoid the kind that flip inside the rig.

    Had mine for 4 years and they work perfect. Easy to open when in a crowded rest area next to the large trucks.

    We love ours. They are adjustable in length and very sturdy.
    I clean them with a broom/shop vac prior to folding them up.
    If they are wet due to rain, we clean as much water off as we can, then put towels inside to soak up the drips.
    Clean up floors when we get it back in storage.
    You may love them, but the first time you can't get into your trailer because you can't put the steps down, for one reason or another, you will have a few choice words to say.
