after we switched the axles over in our 5th wheel, we need another step added to our entry steps... I have looked at 2 models, the lippert brand (300lb rated) and the stromberg-flexco (350lb rated).... does anyone have opinions as to which step is the best and easiest to use? It is MY opinion that just because a manufacture wants to claim their step is stronger, doesnt mean it actually is.. I have seen people have trouble with the manual steps jamming when trying to deploy or stow, and others with sagging bent steps, (not common, but a real hassle when it happens) and I would like to install a set of strong, easy to use steps so that we never have troubles like that... OR, as I would prefer to do here...we have the Lippert double step installed now. is it possible to add another step to this one to convert it to a three step unit? Thank you

I would identify make and model of your current step. Then get a compatible three step.This makes it easier to mount using the same holes and hardware.I would go with the Lippert as they are owners of Kwikee steps which are very good.

Check out the Torklift Glow Steps. They are more expensive but solid as rock once deployed.

Another vote for the Torklift Glowstep Revolution -- fancy name, but they work great. Very expensive.

At a show a few months back I saw several types of these. Very affordable. I was surprised that I had never seen them before. MORryde clicky

brand of entry steps? switching from double to triple..

This^^^^.
If I were going to the trouble to change I would upgrade as well vs. putting on a longer version of the traditional steps

I used those a few years ago when I needed a 3rd step on a 5th wheel camper I lifted.

They were excellent.

Anything but Lippert!

The Torklift are awesome but if on a budget and just want some basic steel steps Hickory Springs (HSM) are rock solid.

They entered into some type of agreement with Lippert a few years back and bailed out in a few months. I suspect when Lippert wanted to cheapen the product.

My Glowstep Revolution is the best mod I have done to my 5'er without question.
