After too many sport injuries this was just the ticket for my 1998 F250. The install took about 30 minutes. The written instructions could have been better but the video did the trick. Thanks for a high value low cost product.
Best product installation/use video on CZcams! Thanks, I'm buying one based on this video!
Why not realize that some people have busted up knees from WORKING HARD all their lives and not being lazy...and so something like this just helps us not feel pain. You are probably young based on your maturity level from this post.... but let me tell you....if you are young...enjoy it... getting old hurts.
NO SHIT!
At 59, played ice hockey 15 years, installing elevators Still, and i climb mountains, still this is a great idea for getting in the back of the truck, i jump down but its nice to take a couple of steps up to climb in. Great Idea. Nice product with an amazing low price.
I sure need this setup
Update on Ford Tailgate Step pricing: I'm getting a new F350 this year and the step is now priced at $375 and must be a factory order truck unless you can find something on the lot that has the step and fits your criteria for the rest of the truck and options. Personally I think I'm going with this since its also removable if needed for loading my ATV or lumber in the bed when I need to and still be able to climb into the bed. Great product and price.
this just created a whole new market watch all the new bed assist products that show up on the market. ram just released its new multi function tailgate
What about gooseneck trailer clearance? It looks to swing upwards at a height that will interfere with the trailer.
What is maximum tailgate height?
So where do you buy it!!!?
Can it be reversed to the other side?
Yes, You can install on either side.
Just installed on my F-150. Broke 4 drill bits drilling for the screws. Otherwise, ladder not hard to install. Truck must be Ford Tough.
Aluminum lol
I found it much easier to throw away the sheet metal screws and use self tapping hex head screws instead. Save your drills. Also installing it was much to wabally so I used spacer fender washers between the joints. I personally didn't like it because the steps are not wide enough and it puts too much stress on only one end of the tailgate cable. I think it better if I would have bought a center mounted ladder to even out the load.
... but with a side mount you have the side of the truck to hold onto for security/safety!
I got in my tailgate step but don't know where the Pins go.
Dear Bob, The Quick Release Pins should be used when installing the Rocker Arms to the Mounting Plate. Please call Traxion at 479-474-3460 if you have any other questions.
My instructions were bad too. For it to be removable install the pins at the first connection on the plate. I also found it easier to use self tapping hex head screws and fender washers to make it more stable. I also added some sealant to prevent rust at the screw holes. I personally don't like it but it's better than what I had. I should have bought a center mounted instead. I feel it puts too much stress on one end if the tailgate cable. That's just my opinion.
By all means buy a Ford, but please note their tailgate ladder option is an extra $300. I think most people would prefer to spend the $50-$70 to have a much more useful product. @robby844
That hole you made will be rust after one month you must do some paint first or use some silicone .
I use clear coat paint then I use rubber backed washers or silicone in my drilled holes. Never rusts for me.
If you cant afford this product try stepping on your tire and climbing over the side of the box to get in. I will make a video upon request. THANKS
+Dalton Fraser Then do a video of replacing a broken valve stem after that.
Be sure to use a male model whose legs aren't long enough to get over the side of the bed.
is any body gettin tired of climbin ladders to get on your truck why dont they bring the truck back down to planet earth
for the workin man
send the mt high trucks to chima
sell more ladders;)
why dont you just buy a ford?
Ya' Ford offers it as option but it should be standard equipment on them all for the fact you have to retrieve tools to repair them so many times daily.
FORD = Fricked Over Rebuilt Dodge..
Because its like riding in a hard, square box and the rear seat is a joke, no OnStar and the radios suck, just an Ulgy Truck, giant rust Bucket.
I don't want to downgrade
@@smperl0c0 not a down grade 🤣🤣🤣
Dangerous piece if junk. The first time you use it on unlevel ground you will see why. Try not to hurt yourself.
