That was the issue with the steps I had, door opening was reduced because of screen door and fender.

Yah. I downloaded their qualifier, and even the 24" model requires a full opening of 22". On a 179, that screen door gets in the way and narrows the opening to about 21".

Their web site has a make/model selector, and R-pod is not on their list. Ouch

Oh! So it didn't work? Bummer! Does the Lippert equivalent work any better?

Haven’t installed yet, should be here in 3-4 days, hope it fits. According to measurements we took at our dealer it should work though.

Tony,

Found it, have you installed? Looks tall, but interesting how it folds into trailer doorway.
