I want to replace the single step to a double step. In my R-Pod 177, the holes on both sides are four inches apart to install the bolts for the steps. Does anyone have a product reference for me that you have used that would install easily without having to drill new holes?

Thanks.

I used the FLEXCO steps from etrailer, had to elongate the rear mounting holes, took a few minutes.

Elongating the rear holes was a bit of a challenge. Lying on the gravel in the driveway. I wound up chucking a rat tail file in the cordless drill and got everything to line up and work. Was last summer, and no problems to date.
