Yikes!!!!!

Just stop by my local ex-airstream dealer to pick up a couple of bolts to fix an entry step for my airstream. 2 complete shoulder bolts and 2 complete socket bolts, I think that's what there are called. Anyone what to guess how much, I would have never guessed.

How about 50 bucks, did I just get taken???

Well for better or worse I sure hope that finishes up my step project

Does anyone know of any other sources if I should need other small step parts?

Sounds about right...those parts are EXPENSIVE a complete step assembly runs in the $750 range IIRC.

Yep, they aren't cheap - and they're just unique enough that it's virtually impossible to find alternatives.

Which bolts are these?

Do they connect the side arms to the step? My second step has busted at the side arm/step connection (looks like some sort of huge rivet?)
Thanks!
Marc
