replacing folding stairs

[PZ]

I am going to replace the outside steps on my 2006 Zinger 29 as the rivits have corroded and broken. They are triple steps and had a sticker with the name Flexco Products on them. I had no luck getting on to a web site for that company. Any advise as to the best place to purchase a new set of steps for replacement?

Found them here by doing a search for triple folding rv steps.

Any good rv dealer will have them also.

I replaced all the worn out rivets on my steps with class 8 hardened steel bolts. I/4 inch diameter if I remember right.So that I didn't have to tighten the nuts too tight to impair rotation, I used nylock nuts so they wouldn't back off. I keep an eye on them. So far so good.

I did exactly what Kurt did and have had no furtherproblems with steps

I did the same as Kurt and Dennis. Had a rivet pop out last year and after seeing the price of replacement steps, I bought some grade 8 hardware at the local hardware store. Glad I bought spares because I had another one come loose this past summer. Haven't had any problems and the steps pull out as easy as before.
