Does anyone know, or have, replaced the stairs on this model or similar?  Everything I am finding on Amazon looks like it would not fit up properly on the under side because there is only 7" from the side of RV to the chassis cross member (2X4 steel).  

And looking on the Forest River/RPOD site is not helpful, a needle in a haystack!

Thanks!

You may want to look at etrailer.com. They have this one: https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Steps/Lippert/LC432678.html?feed=npn&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1672411858&gbraid=0AAAAAD_vMtnRU9lm9IFL_erPL1p3qDWTT&gclid=Cj0KCQiAtfXMBhDzARIsAJ0jp3Dx99Q0DtpXTaBKxyVnp7Ea0BuzjnaDDymev9mPteyRQfGii6WFGkkaArjdEALw_wcB

We replaced our 179 steps with one from etrailer. We had to add a few washers and cut (notch) a small piece of the stair frame. It works perfectly
Travel safe and often
