My ex Telstra came with fold up steps at the rear but I found them too low to be helpful & they were heavy galvanised affairs. Removed them in a weight saving exercise. Tried to offload them here, but no takers so they went to scrap. I only have solar panels on my roof now, but now & again I like to clean all the outback dust off them. I can reach four of them from the rear, stepping up on the towball & standing on the ledge at the back. A bit 'precarious' The front two panels I can reach from standing on the door sills. Bought a small lightweight broom in Normanton to make the job easier. Does the red step you are replacing attach to the towball tongue somehow? If so I might be interested in it if it would make stepping up onto the 'ledge' a bit safer?

EDIT On second thoughts perhaps not. I found the Safe-T-Step web page, & on my tow hitch I'd need to use a step to get up onto the folding step as it would be just a little higher than my comfort zone.Just tried with the small aluminium folding step I carry - which has many uses - & have now found another use for it!
