RE: Fifth wheel step damaging door frame any suggestions

Thanks yes this is what I’ve been doing from your post to unlock then put in position and re-lock in place I’m wondering if there is play between where it locks around the frame during transit or if I should leave it unlocked, have a ticket open with lippert also

RE: Fifth wheel step damaging door frame any suggestions

Think I may be following you if I leave it unlocked will the step stay in place just by the black flange and the door frame closure

RE: Fifth wheel step damaging door frame any suggestions

Thanks for your reply, aren’t the locks meant to be out to hold the steps in place during travel to hold the steps in place, I was putting the steps in and locking them in place with the yellow handle
