Speaker: Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Brophy Tailgate Scissor Step bracket. This bracket is used to mount a set of Scissor stairs to your truck's tailgate. It's going to work with 18 inch and 24 inch Brophy Aluminum Scissor steps. The bracket itself is made from a durable steel construction with a protective finish to keep it safe from rust and corrosion and from the elements. Now when it comes to getting the bracket mounted, it's going to have these L pins back here. You want to measure to distance from the center of one L pin to the center of the other.
This is going to give you the distance between the two holes that need to be drilled in your vehicle's tailgate. Then you would insert the L pins into the holes and rotate the bracket. That's really all there is to it. That's8 going to provide a really great attachment point right here with the hooks for your Brophy Scissor Stairs. For a permanent installation, you can use the pre-drilled or pre-punched holes on each end of the bracket and attaching it to the tailgate with mounting hardware. Mounting hardware is sold separately.
It does come with detailed installation instructions to help walk you through the entire process step by step. Few measurements to go over with real quick. We're going to start with the over-all length of the unit. Measuring edge to edge, it's going to give us a measurement of about 18 1/8 of an inch. The distance that we have between our L pins going center on center, that's going to give us a measurement, it looks to be right on 15 inches. The distance between these mount holes, center on center, that's going to give us a measurement of about 16 13/16 of an inch. That's going to do it for today's look at the Brophy Tailgate Scissor Step bracket..

Its a year old now and still working great. I have had no issues with it and the steps used with the bracket helps for easy entry to the truck camper.
