Hints

• Consider installing and using a pair of "step bushings" (https://www.tcwtech.com/product/rv-10-products/) in your RV-10 steps. Without them, it is likely that over time the bolt holding your step in place will wear the opening slightly larger, and you'll have some movement/play in your step.
  The instructions say to use a nylon string but something more sturdy is necessary should you need to pull the bushing back.
  The bushings may require to be buffed to reduce their diameter to fit into the steps.
  Make sure the holes and the opening of the step opening are properly deburred before inserting the bushing.
  

30-3 Step 3

• Consider installing access covers to be able to reach the step bolts later. This requires drilling the step bolt holes at a 45 degrees angle, so the bolts can come out without touching the baggage floor.
