Question:

I was given a solid step for my RV but they did not have the backing plate. Do you sell these separately?

I bought a used like new solid step 3.0 26" no hardware or backing plate. I am wondering if this backing late is necessary to install #LC791572 steps? I also require hardware kit to mount steps to threshold as well as the Hole plugs, furthermore, if the plate is required to install, does it go underneath where original steps were located? ....ps if you can include all the available part # I mentioned Id be glad to purchase them ASAP...Ok thanks Sean

@Sean Yes, if you were going to use the backing plate part # LC702580 it would go under where the old steps were and the hardware would go through the floor to attach to it below. This comes with hardware but we do not have the hole plugs.

Hi Jameson, thank you for the quick reply! I understand from your reply mounting the steps uses long bolts that would be drilled through the floor to under the stairwell and the plate would be needed. All I need is to purchase the plate with hardware and should be good then. Thank you for the helpful info. Have a good one!
