Folding Step Slips Over Tire
Christopher McKay, Twin Evil Enterprises, Saint Albans, W. Va.: “The frame on our new folding step slips over a tire, just like on our original heavy duty pickup step (Vol. 39, No. 2). However, this patent pending model has 2 fold-down steps instead of one to provide a greater reach and easier access.

    “You slip the frame over the top of the tire and then fold the steps down. A pair of wide tabs welded onto the back side of the frame come in contact with the tire to keep the frame from damaging the sidewall. The steps are made from powder-coated expanded metal and designed to hold up to 500 lbs. They’re available in bright red or safety yellow for high visibility.

    “Works great for safely reaching gear stored on your vehicle’s roof. It also provides access to semi truck engines and flatbed trailers. Both the original step and the new 2-step models work on either single or dual wheels, 2 1/2-ton military trucks, Jeeps, SUV’s and even ATV’s. The second step also doubles as a seat, if desired.

    “The 2-step model sells for $115 plus S&H. If you already have a one-step model, you can convert it to a 2-step by purchasing the second step and bolting it on. The 2-step upgrade sells for $45 plus S&H.”
