This is what Hallmark uses on their pop up campers.
Very satisfied with the 18" version...

Thanks to everyone for your input. I ordered the 24" Aluminum Brophy steps (4 step version). No I just have to install them.

I was using the Harbor Freight foot stool on unlevel ground, got in a hurry and went out of the camper frontwards instead of backwards, then stepped on the outside edge of the stool which was facing downhill, it tipped forward causing me to lose my footing and hit the bottom of the door jamb,Ouch! My fault for being careless but thought it worth a heads up. Also I did have the stool  with the long side facing the camper, much less stable than with the short side facing the camper.

I have the TorkLift GlowSteps on my 2014 Hawk. They're super easy to install and use. Very stable.

Dagwood,

How did you mount your GlowSteps?  The Torklift site shows them drilling holes and bolting on a mounting bracket.  My Nissan Frontier has a step built into the bumper and it doesn't look like it would work.

 

Thanks

 

Mike

There is a sign on the BC ferry that reads... "Face the front or face the consequences".

 

I always says this to my GF when she comes out of the camper in the dangerous direction  :)

 

I hope you didn't hurt yourself.

Mike I have glowsteps on my 2015 Hawk and my truck is a 2009 Superduty. The step mount uses lag screws into the floorboard below the camper door was easy install and has been rock solid.

Santiam Camper,
Be careful when mounting there on the Frontier. We had mounted a drop down bicycle carrier using the ball mount hole in our Frontier bumper and a LEO decided it obstructed the license plate enough to warrant a ticket. That was with only the 4" pivot section installed.

We're also in Oregon.
