🚪 Stromberg Carlson SMFP-1200 Flexco Manual Coach Steps - 24" Single, 2.75" Rise - Enhanced for SEO Review

The step was ordered in the hope that it could be changed to order. We met with several companies doing similar work and ended up concluding that this step should not be used. The return deadline was January 31, 2019 and today is February 7, 2019. We're disappointed that this step didn't work, and we're also disappointed that we can't…

It would be five stars if it came from the factory. At the bottom two parts are cut out and re-welded. It would be nice if the step was powder coated afterwards, now it's just bare metal. You will need to purchase primer and paint to temporarily protect the stage from rust. It's fine, but powdercoating is far more durable than paint, and I don't have a powdercoating oven in my garage. Do not hang it so far that it will not be damaged when driving through the forest. I hope the seller will…
