Entry Step

[brad barton]

John,
I had excellent luck with my Kwikee step but it replaced a similar electric step
instead of air-operated as in BB's. I think the whole installation was about
500 dollars parts and labor.Brad Barton 00LXiDFW bbartonwx@...

I've done a little looking around on line and there are replacement steps made
buy KwiKee and I am thinking about going that route. The entire step really
needs replaced and this would seem to me to be an easier way to do it. They are
12 volt operated and they come with everything needed. On the other hand what do
I know??? But I will be learnin'John Heckmancentral Pa 1973 FC >> > John, > I

stick tape..came off..but I found it before it was too late and superglued it
back on. If you want the original BB air-actuated step, the magnetic quick-ee
switch may not work, I don't know. Brad Barton 00LXiDFW bbartonwx@...> > > To:

No mechanism or valves.It appears that most parts are missing so my question is
more basic. I have what is an obvious switch on the inside door jam and the
steps them selves but I basically am going to have to start over getting the air
and electral components. Looks like a job for the professionals. I just was
wondering if this is all BB stuff or if other coaches have similar? Don't think
I am up to all that is involved with this one. John Heckmancentral Pa 1973 FC>>
