While we don't have an RV ladder available that matches the length and step number on your current unit, we do have options that will work as a replacement.
I recommend taking a look at the Stromberg Carlson RV Exterior Ladder w/ Hinges # LA-401. This particular ladder measures 99-1/2 inches in length, which is obviously quite a bit taller than what you're looking to replace. Because the ladder is intended to be a universal application though the legs are designed so that you can cut down the length to exactly what is needed. To do this you just need a standard hacksaw or tube cutter.
The mounting hardware is included and support pegs are positioned along the ladder for additional strength. I have attached a short video demonstration that you can also check out.
