Is The Lippert Telescoping Ladder Receiver Bracket Sold Separately

Updated 07/02/2026 | Published 10/06/2024

Question:

I was going to purchase the Lippert Telescoping ladder, and it says compatible with the Lippert ladder support which appears to be an accessory that mounts on the upper area of the rv and the ladder attaches to it. Where do you get this item. Is this something I can purchase and install on my RV. This makes no sense... Please help me to understand. Thanks

Hey Dennis,

The bracket the mounts to the trailer wall would need to be installed at the factory and unfortunately isn't an option aftermarket. These are relatively new so I'm assuming after enough people complain to Lippert they'll start offering them separately. You can still use the ladder # LC64HD even if you don't have this bracket, you'll just want to make sure the ladder is tall enough to extend past the roof and maybe have an extra person holding the ladder to ensure it doesn't fall over.

I've used a few different versions of these style ladders and have typically not had any issues without the bracket, whether I was on solid ground or gravel.

Hey Dennis, how did things go using the Lippert telescoping ladder without the factory bracket? It’d be great to hear if it felt stable and easy to handle on your RV. Your update could make it easier for others considering the same setup.

Yep. Works like a champ. Fits in rear storage so I carry it with me on all trips

@DennisC Appreciate you sharing your experience after taking Kevin C's advice - helpful for us to decide to give it a go without the bracket as well!

Is there supposed to be to be a ladder that comes with it? Are we to buy a separately? It’s got the receiver built on but no ladder just curious.

@Shane The receiver for the ladder is purchased separately or can come with the trailer as an OEM ladder prep package but the Lippert Telescoping Ladder part # LC64HD itself is sold separately.

@ClaireH I have a telescoping ladder and would like to purchase the bracket that goes on the ladder (the part with the arms) that then attaches to the trailer, is this a possibility or purchase

@Tyler The brackets for the Lippert On-The-Go Telescopic ladder are only sold as an OEM part. So, only the motorhome/trailer manufacturer is able to order them, or you could reach out to a fabricator to build the brackets for you.
