    This is the most common sense video I've seen on making a low cost, effective step. Thanks for doing the leg-work to find the items that make it simple.

    I bought this same setup for my boat trailer, then to make it more safe I put a piece of bent conduit as a hand hold while using, it’s a lot harder getting out than getting in. I drilled two bolts to hold conduit in the bottom of step and let it come out then a 180 degree bend and let it come up about 30 inches.😊 hope this helps someone.😊

    THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!
    I just bought the both parts for $50 total on Amazon and easily installed them on my trailer without having to drill any holes.

    Thanks for making this video. I bought the exact pieces and built and mounted it today. It’s makes getting in and out WAY easier!

    Ooohhhh! New truck! Pretty! Couldn’t tell, but always recommend stainless hardware.

  • @edgarbryant1079

    Great idea. I just followed your example and added one like it to my boat trailer. Works great. Enjoy your videos very much.

    Great idea and video! You’ve earned a sub my man! Last year I took a fall stepping from the tongue to the bow at the boat ramp. I’m 6”4’ and I weigh 240lbs, gravity hates my guts to say the least. I’m like you, I didn’t want to spend all that money on something so simple. I’ve been looking for ideas, and your idea is pure genius. Thanks!

    Great ! Just did this to my boat trailer. The only thing I did different was to add a one inch thick spacer under the bolts that go across the top of your trailer and drop the bottom bolts to the last hole. Piece ended up being 1x3x4 . this gives you an extra inch of lift. At my age every inch helps. I used a thick piece of plastic I had but you could use a piece of hardwood or a couple pieces of 1 inch square metal tubing, Thanks for the video.

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před 6 měsíci

      Nice!! Glad it worked out for you. Definitely one of my best upgrades!

  • @jamiebell8304
    @jamiebell8304 Před 2 lety +2

    That's a great idea! I have a boat on the way and was ready to plunk down the $400 for a step system.. I'm gonna try to make this work instead👍
    Just a suggestion.. maybe add a non-slip pad on the top of your trailer...another excuse to add more cool foot bling! 😎

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před 2 lety

      I have some left over so I will probably do that!

  • @docriordan7787
    @docriordan7787 Před 2 lety

    My wrench support bar is straight up so I bolted directly to it. Your balance is much better than mine and I'm still trying to figure out a grab bar that will work after that the fishing life will get better.

  • @filred3609
    @filred3609 Před rokem +1

    Great idea! I think I'll do the same, but I'm worried about the spare tire carrier strenght. It's made to carry a wheel with the rim, probably 40/45 lbs. Being me almst 200 lbs couldn't it bend or break?

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před rokem

      That's why I threw that disclaimer in there. But I'm 180 and use mine at least twice a week. She's still holding strong. The metal used for the spare tire holder is actually thicker than used for the actual step

  • @DickNOYFB
    @DickNOYFB Před 2 lety

    That's pretty awesome. With my knees, I definitely need a step or two. Will be using your idea.

  • @jimlmackjr1
    @jimlmackjr1 Před rokem

    Hey your video showed up on my feed. After watching this i noticed that up could almost mount it on the 4 bolts next to your winch at the lowest setting and would eliminate the tire mount

  • @rickyp.625
    @rickyp.625 Před rokem

    Great idea!! You said top of the tongue to the top of the step is about 10". What is it from top of the trailer to the top of the bow? Trying to see if this will work on my glass boat.

  • @breikowski
    @breikowski Před 2 lety

    Just bought both. It’s a no brainer. Hope you got a couple pennys!

      What's up my friend. Just put on the spare tire bracket and step. Thanks for saving me hundreds of dollars. And it's looks good

  • @gregbryant4066
    @gregbryant4066 Před rokem

    This looks great. Thinking of adding a step on my boat trailer. 2002 Javelin 18ft. How far up from the top of the trailer tongue is the step? And how far from the side of the tongue is the step? Thanks.

  • @Steve31957

    • @JT_70
      @JT_70 Před rokem

      What did you end up doing for a step on your Tracker TrailStar trailer? I mounted only the step on the winch post of mine a couple of years ago but it’s not ideal. I’m also looking for an economical flat step (or ramp) for the top of the tongue to walk on.

  • @chrisk3379
    @chrisk3379 Před 2 lety

    Great way to get it done, I created something similar, but not as good as what you came up with. Thanks for the info!

  • @Bassman190DC

    I use the FlexStep Pro Adjustable Trailer Step but I think I like that one better.

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před 2 lety +1

      I looked at that one before doing this and it looks like a nice step but I just wanted a little more platform to step on

  • @frankkasyouhannon8376

    That’s an awesome idea. Thank you. I have only one question what size coo foot pad did you order for your step? I haven’t received my step in the mail yet, so I haven’t been able to measure. Just wanted to order that pad.

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před rokem

      You can go on the Cool Foot website and order sheets of it on there. Or you can go on Amazon and order sheets of Hydroturf also

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před 2 lety +1

      It does come with hardware however I had to get the 3/8" X 1 bolts to mount the step to the spare tire holder

    • @GunnFishTV
      @GunnFishTV  Před 2 lety +3

      It's called Cool Foot padding. It has 3M adhesive on the back side so it sticks right to the step
