Will Flexco Pull-Out Steps Work for You?
Pull-out steps are typically installed on travel trailers. The Flexco pull-out steps from Stromberg Carlson are easy to install and fold up underneath the camper for simple storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Lippert pull-out steps attach to the underside of the camper chassis, directly beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available underneath your camper that lines up with the door frame, and measure the width and depth. You will need a mounting space that is at least 28-1/8" wide and 12" deep.
If it turns out you have more or less space beneath your doorway, there are other step assemblies available with bracket sizes ranging from 21-1/16" wide to 28-1/4" wide. A full list of the available steps is below.
Outriggers - metal brackets that act as an extension (LC301704 - sold separately) - may be needed for installation depending on the model of your original stairs. These provide extra length if the old steps are longer or wider than the new.
Once you know where the mounting bracket will go and what size mounting bracket you need, that spot will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.
How Many Steps Do You Need?
To determine how many steps you'll need, measure from the mounting point to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, plus 3" to 9" to account for the drop from the bottom steps to the ground. This measurement will also tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays mounting bracket width measurements in the first column and entry height measurements in the second column. The third column shows the corresponding part numbers. Use the mounting bracket width and entry height measurements you took to determine which part number will fit your RV. Choose the bracket size that is closest to your measurements without going over.
This page's step assembly is in bold text.
| Mounting Bracket Width | Entry Height | Part Number |
|---|---|---|
| 21-1/16" | 14-1/2" - 17-1/2" | SMFP-1120 |
| 23-5/8" | 19" - 22" | SMFP-2120 |
| 24-1/4" | 10-1/2" - 13-1/2" | SMFP-1220 |
| 25" | 14-1/2" - 17-1/2" | SMFP-1100 |
| 26" | 19" - 22" | SMFP-2100 |
| 27-1/8" | 30" - 33" | SMFP-3200L |
| 28-1/8" | 26" - 29" | SMFP-3100 |
| 28-1/8" | 34" - 37" | SMFP-4400 |
| 28-1/4" | 10-1/2" - 13-1/2" | SMFP-1200 |

We received exactly the item we ordered in the timeframe we were quoted. Since time was a factor in receiving and then replacing, my husband and I were pleased when the item arrived even sooner than we anticipated. We were able to replace the old item with the new item without any complications. etrailer is now our “go to” company for all of our camper/camping needs.

The hole placement was a little different. Couple quick portable drill mods and the steps were in quickly. The shipment was quicker than expected. Quality of the product was perfect. Staff was very helpful. I highly recommend etrailer.

These Stromberg-Carlson Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps for RV'S - Triple - 8" Drop/Rise - 24" Wide - 350 lbs - SMFP 3100 we ordered from etrailer.com were the exact ones that came on our 32.5' 2014 Windjammer trailer by Forest River when we purchased it new. The original steps got bent when we were forced off the shoulder of the highway, causing the rear axle to drop over the edge of the road and drag on the pavement about a short distance before we could stop, bending the stairs and making it nearly impossible to lower them. Fortunately, the mounting brackets were not comprised or bent. Once we placed our order, we received the replacements from etrailer.com in just a few days. My husband had them installed in short order. They look great, and match the stairs at the other door perfectly. The price was very reasonable and customer service very helpful, pleasant and courteous. We would recommend this product and etrailer.com without hesitation.07p

I couldn't be any more satisfied with the new steps, or the help Angela provided me in the selection. The steps were a perfect match for the damaged ones on my 2008 Heartland Sundance. Used a floor jack to hold them up in place, 4 bolts to the main support bracket, 2 bolts to the back braces, and it was done in less than 3o minutes. Please see the pictures.
by: Bob05/12/2018
The new steps were indentical to the old ones except they were not bent up like the old ones. I had to straighten up a bracket that the steps bolted onto. Once that was done they fit right on. It is difficult to get the carriage bolts started because on space limitations. Other than that it not that difficult. The new steps fit great.

The steps work fine. I had to do some straightening on the brackets that hold them in place to get them to retract properly. Bent brackets not a problem with the steps. Still working fine.
by: Jay R.02/26/2017
Prompt service and product fits well. Stairs seem to be a little harder to use and not quite as stable as original. Stairs are overall a good product for the price.

Same as before.....the stairs fit well, but are not as easily used as the originals

This product was completely described and accurate. The measurements were given in enough detail that I knew it would fit my trailer and attach easily. Would certainly buy from this supplier with future needs.

Excellent product.
by: Robert06/24/2018
I built a shooting house on a trailer that was 30 inches from the ground. I needed the steps to get into the back door of the shooting house, which is on wheels. If I need to move it, fold up steps was the way to go. I also needed fold up steps as the house is sitting on four jacks, one on each corner for total stability. They also fold up if I need to move the house. The steps allowed me to fold up the jacks without
interference from the steps. The steps are exactly what I needed for this project.
The steps support me as I hoped they would as I enter the house. An excellent product.

It would have been nice if you spend $xxx that you would have gotten the mounting brackets with your item. Very disappointed.

If you are talking about the outriggers, they are, at times, not needed, which is why they are sold separately. The item you need is item # LC301704.

Replacement of my travel trailer steps. Installed the mounting hardware from the old steps on the new steps. With the help of a floor jack it only took 10 minutes to install. They work and fit great.

I mounted 1 of your pull out steps on a 15’ box van 7 years ago. We have the van full of inventory. We drive a 80 mile radius to 90 shops. It is a very safe way to get customers in the van to look at our inventory. Very well built and dependable. I just purchased another one for my new van.
Thanks

Steps have worked great during the past year, especially since I am taking care now when backing my trailer up.
by: Dave D. 09/05/2017
The steps were a dead on replacement, bolt hole wise, for my old steps. I also must say they are much stronger and sturdier than the original steps. Very happy with the quality and service I received from etrailer.com.
by: Dale06/01/2016
The whole process and product are a 5 star rating. Ordering was easy and shipping on time. The steps are sturdy. Great down and out angle and I like the 9" width which makes getting in and out of the RV easy.

No problems..still an excellent product
by: Ed B.07/17/2016
Great service. These are exact replacements for the steps on my Rockwood 8310ss travel trailer. My original steps caught the end of a high curb while entering a campground and no longer opened. It took three days from ordering to ups placing the new steps infront of my garage. The steps were exactly as described and will only require bolting onto the existing brackets.
by: Kyle05/31/2016
This product was delivered on time and I was impressed with the quality. I needed to make a small adjustment to my existing bracket to account for the slide bar that sticks out each side of the stairs, but the bolt holes and everything else lined up perfectly.
by: Ray03/26/2018
Although product was acceptable it was not OEM dimensions even thought it was produced in 2016. Additionally, the stabilizer jack is small, rinky-dink, and of little use for the application advertised by manufacturer.
Of course these issues do not diminish the outstanding serviced I received from etrailer.com. My etrailer.com representative could not have been more outstanding and helpful. The order was processed, shipped and delivered in just three days and my representative stayed in constant communication throughout the process. I encourage all friends and the RVes of America to use this companies service. GREAT JOB
by: John W.09/01/2016
etrailer delivered as stated on my replacement stairs. Not only did they show up in time, they were $50.00 cheaper than a RV store 5 miles from my house-including shipping. etrailer is the first place I will look for parts and accessories for my 2015 Sportsman.
by: Tony06/25/2017
Replaced the step on my camper with this one. Went from 2 step to 3. These did not mount up in the same holes as the old ones but a little drilling and welding and they are on. Work great, strong with non skid strips on front edge of steps. 3 step is much better than the old 2 step. Happy with this purchase. Shipped quickly.
by: Carl A.06/29/2016
After smashing my steps against a parking lot light standard i ordered identical steps from etrailer. The steps, item # SMFP-3100, are priced right and the quality is acceptable. They operate as designed with little effort. We travel months at a time and use our steps frequently. I certainly would recommend this product to anyone.
by: Don M09/09/2018
We ordered these Flexco RV steps as a replacement after a minor accident that ruined the original steps. Our order arrived much sooner than expected, which was excellent as it was quite dangerous using the old ones. These steps actually seem to make entry and exit of our RV easier; they don't seem quite as steep as the original steps. Would definitely order from etrailer.com again. Great service.
by: John W10/28/2016
Wow, ordered the product on Tuesday, October 25, at noon and received a confirmation email the order was received. At 5:30 that day, received an email and tracking number that the product had been shipped. Came home Thursday at 4:00 PM and there was the boxed product in perfect condition. None of the typical shipping damage. Opened the box to inspect the product and it is exactly as ordered. Looking forward to installing on the trailer today. Thanks for the great service.

- Could Flexco Triple Pull Out Step Fit 2015 Forest River Cherokee 16BHS Camper TrailerThe Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps for RVs # SMFP-3100 that you referenced can be made to fit your camper as you can always weld these in place of what you currently have or have the current brackets moved. Single steps typically have much narrower mounting brackets that triple steps. This should put the third step right near the ground though. I attached a review video for these steps for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Ground Clearance with Flexco SMFP-3100 2-Step RV StepsThere really isn't a set ground clearance, the underside of the housing will sit 14-1/2 inches lower than the top of the mounting flanges as shown in the provided photo. If you measure 14-1/2 inches downward from where you'll mount the steps, you'll know exactly where the underside of the steps will sit in relation to everything else on the RV undercarriage. I've linked to a product description video featuring the # SMFP-3100 RV Steps.

- How Does Motor of Coach Two Step ReplaceI will be happy to help explain how to remove the old motor and install the new one # LC301695. The motor and gear assembly can be replaced by first disconnecting the two pin connector from the module to the motor. Next, remove the p-clamp holding the wire harness to the motor mount. Then, remove the ball joint linkage from the gear followed by the self-tapping screw that holds the ground wire. Next, remove the 3 bolts that hold the motor mount to the step base.

- Replacement Steps for 1995 Airstream Travel TrailerIn order to find the correct fit for your 1995 Airstream, you will need some additional measurements. First, we will need the width of one of the steps. This will narrow down our choices. From the mounting bracket measurement you provided, your steps could be either 22" or 24" wide. Next we need to ensure that the steps will mount in the allotted space on your trailer. The simplest way to ensure a good fit is to measure the mounting hole spacing on your current steps. You'll measure...

view full answer... - Recommended Replacement 3-Step Trailer Step Assembly for 24-Inch Mounting Hole SpacingWe do not offer any pull-out 3-step assemblies that match your mounting hole spacing so to install a new set of pull-out steps like the Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps # SMFP-3200L you'll just need to drill new mounting holes. I have linked you to all of our 3-step manual step assemblies. You'll want to note the retracted height of the steps you choose to ensure you maintain safe ground clearance.

The correct way to measure the mounting brackets for your steps would involve recording the length from the center of each bolt hole on the brackets attached to the frame. The mounting dimensions of our 3 step pull-outs for 24" steps are generally anywhere from 25-27". For a mounting base dimension of 25-1/2", I recommend using...
view full answer... - Could Flexco Triple Step Replace Flexco Double StepThe 3 step Flexco part # SMFP-3100 is going to be wider than the 2 step that you currently have. Most likely you'd be able to remove your current mounting brackets and place them closer which would allow you to install them. This is a pretty common solution as long as the opening on your RV is wide enough to allow the added width to fit. It should be but it's worth checking.

- Triple Manual Pull Out Steps for a 2014 Keystone LaredoIf the overall width of your existing steps is 27-1/2 inches then the Manual Pull-Out Steps # LC432687 are going to be the best option.

- Can 2 Step of 2017 Forest River Work and Play 25WB be Replaced by 3 StepGoing from a 2 step to a 3 step on an RV is definitely possible, but the mounting brackets are wider when going to the larger steps so you'd need the outriggers part # LC301704 to install a pull out 3 step Flexco like part # SMFP-3100.

- Difference Between No Ground Contact vs. Ground Contact for RV StepsThe only difference in steps that are faceted as having Ground Contact or No Ground Contact is that the steps that have ground contact have a portion of the steps that comes in complete contact with the ground while those labeled No Ground Contact are not supported by the ground at all.

From the first to the second step it measures 8-1/2 inches, from the second to third it is 8 inches, and from the third to the fourth it measures 7-3/4 inches. The other option we have is the part # SMFP-3100 which is also a 24 inch wide quad step, this one has 8 inches between each step.

view full answer... - Can New RV Steps Install On RV Where Old Brackets are Different DimensionsWhen changing the amount of steps you have on an RV like with the # SMFP-3100 it's pretty common that the widths of the brackets don't match up perfectly, but the good news is you can still install a different set as long as you are willing to make some modifications. What you can do is see if you can move the brackets you have now, weld the steps directly to the frame, or also you could go with new outriggers like part # LC301704 to replace what you have.

These steps in particular have a 9" rise/drop. There is an 8" version of this step available as part # SMFP-3100.
view full answer... - Pull Out Triple Step Setup for Forest River RockwoodThe mounting bracket width of the Triple Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps # SMFP-3100 is 28-1/8 inches. If your bracket with is 27 inches you'd need to have them removed and install wider outriggers with the part # LC301704. If you need a narrower step setup overall the # LC432696 is 27-1/2 inches or the Torklift GlowStep part # TLA8103 is 25-1/2 inches overall in width.

There are holes on both ends of the brackets for the steps and for attaching them to your RV. The # SM-01 would match up to the install holes of the Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps # SMFP-3100 that you referenced as well. The side bolt holes on these steps are actually what is used to attach them to the # LC301704.
