Specs:
TorkLift's GlowStep Stow N' Go steps offer stability and adjustability. The built-in landing gear legs let you fine-tune the height of the steps. And they can be adjusted independently of one another to stabilize the steps on uneven terrain, eliminating any wobble.
These GlowStep Stow N' Go steps have a bolt-on mounting base that installs on the outside of your camper. The base provides a strong and stable connection to your camper, and it attaches permanently using the included mounting hardware. When you're ready to roll, just collapse the steps, fold them up, and snap them into the base of the bracket. The stabilizing bracket not only holds the steps in place on the outside of your camper, but it also prevents unwanted movement and rattle. For ultimate security, add on a TorkLift pin lock (TLA7509 - sold separately) to lock the steps to the bracket.
Will Torklift GlowStep Stow N' Go Scissor Steps Work for You?
Scissor steps are typically installed on truck campers. The Stow N' Go scissor steps from Torklift are easy to install and lock into the mounting bracket while on the go. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Stow N' Go scissor steps have a single mounting bracket that attaches to either the camper wall or the truck bumper beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available for the mounting bracket on your application and measure the width and height. You will need an area of at least 23" wide and 3-1/2" tall.
Once you have an approximation of where the mounting bracket will go, the spot you chose will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.
How Many Steps Do You Need?
To decide on how many steps you'll need, measure from the mounting point to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, and it will tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays entry height measurements in the first column. The step part numbers with the 23" mounting bracket width are in the second column.
This page's step assembly is in bold text.
| Entry Height | 23" Mounting Bracket Width |
|---|---|
| 23-1/2" - 34-1/2" | TLA7843, TLA7833 |
| 31" - 42" | TLA7844, TLA7834 |
| 38-1/2" - 50" | TLA7845, TLA7835 |
| 46-1/2" - 58" | TLA7836, TLA7846 |
How Do You Install the Steps?
To install the steps:
-Make sure the assembly is centered beneath the doorway
-Secure in place with included lag screws
GlowStep Accessories
Add any of these accessories to your Stow N' Go steps for stability, eliminating gaps, and keeps your steps and RV interior clean. The GlowGuide handrail (TLA7621 - sold separately) attaches to the outside of your RV and a bracket on the bottom of the steps. This helps to steady the assembly and adds 25 lbs to the weight capacity of the stairs. The SafeStep vinyl barrier (TLA7602 - sold separately) easily fastens with Velcro strips in between any 2 steps. This prevents your or your pets from accidentally slipping between steps. The DirtDestroyer boot brush (Tla7603 - sold separately) affixes to the bottom of the steps so you can scrape your shoes before climbing into your RV.

Order was correct and the product is built like you would expect from TorkLift.
Just installed these on my new Four Wheel camper. Had to add a 2 1/2" x3" block to accommodate the lower bolts. The steps feel very sturdy and look like they may have decent traction in icy conditions. I like that they can be collapsed and removed to store inside for driving on bumpy rough roads. I haven't been camping with these yet but i'm sure they will be safer and more stable than the foldable 2 step flimsy ladder we have been using.
Was very easy to order. Received it fast.
It was simple to install and works as we wanted it to.
Will continue to order from E Trailer as they are very
trusted and helpful every step of the way
Thanks for following up. We ordered this from you not having any previous experience with your company or products. I can say honestly we are very happy with both!
I must confess, however, these steps are not for an RV. We have an office that has a window designated for "emergency egress." Office occupants could not safely and easily access the window without steps. Moreover, to conserve space, the steps needed to be able to retract out of the way. Solution: your retractable RV steps! They are sturdy, the height is perfect and they fold out of the way-check, check, check.
I didn't go to the link you provided since our organization frowns on using external links in email. But please forward our comments to your reviews.
Glad we found these and glad for your help.
Super fast shipping and the installation was a breeze.
Everything went fine after second order UPS lost first order so it took three times as long to get our steps. I’m happy with the product.
Well worth the money. Could not be happier. Easy to install and VERY sturdy.
Great steps
I have a Lance truck camper in the bed of a Ford superduty 4x4 truck. The door opening to the camper is about 40" above the ground when in the truck. The two step setup that was factory installed on the camper was simply too high above the ground to use. So I installed the Torklift 5 step scissor step system. It is very easy to use, very sturdy, and easily adapts to different ground heights if the camper is parked on a slope. I fabricated a steel bracket that mounts up under the camper to the factory installed mounting studs, then bolted the scissor steps to the new bracket.
Very well made with "extra" hardware to cover the many different installation possibilities. These take a lot of stress out of using our camper.
If getting into your camper is a challenge, I highly recommend these.
Easy installation, good quality product, stable stairs when deployed.
Like the abilty to pull the 2 pins and easily remove the assembly from the bracket and lock it to the bracket with the same pin lock as the Fastgun bed camper tiedowns. Included all stainless steel bracket mounting hardware for mounting to metal bumper or on wood. very nice product overall.
I installed my tow N Go steps today. Instillation was easy and I think they will work well. The reason I did not give an excellent rating is because the bolt fisher TorkLift provides is two feet short of what is needed. The door on my truck camper is a touch right of center at the back. The door on the bumper is o the left so a five foot bolt fisher is needed. For the price of this unit I would think TorkLift could provide a longer fisher. I ended up soldering some single strand wire musky leader material to the provided bolt fisher to extend it. Had photos but would not upload.
great stairs. sorry I couldn't see how to delete the incorrect picture of my sister in law
Trevor W. and etrailer did a great job. Quick shipping. Product as described. Easy install.
Excellent “steps” for a high clearance Truck Camper!
These scissor steps make a huge difference for us to safely and easily enter our camper whether it is on the truck or not. I did modify one thing. The gap between the top scissor step and the truck landing was too wide and I was concerned we might step through the opening. I rectified this by attaching one of the original steps to the landing which gave an extra step and took up the space between the top scissor step and the landing. Attached pictures show this modification. The steps still fold nicely to the Arctic Fox Landing while traveling and attacing the steps to the side gave easy reach to the ladder for stability until I reach the handle on the camper itself.
Mounted this on camper. Because bummer was weak, my husband build a box, attached that ontop of camper bumper, then attached this. Great work around as our camper was so high, without this step I could not teach door handle. Love it!
Just what we needed to get in and out of our flat bed camper very well built and easy to use
These are great steps. I attached them to my Northstar truck camper and they are very durable. They are also not slippery when wet. I have had them for an almost a year now and no complaints.
The steps are great. Installation directions were clear and the end result looks really good. The only advice I can give is to measure the steps when the camper is on the truck (I had to swap out for a larger set) and look closely at where you are mounting it- I put it a little closer than I wanted to my propane access.
Love our new stairs!!! We are in our 70’s and these stairs make it much easier getting up and down from our truck camper. Excellent product and we highly recommend!

After a full year of use, the steps are still giving all we expect. No problems. No breakage. They get pounded 100 days a year.
