Anyone using EZ STEPS on a 2016 z518 or similar? Was wondering how well they work. I have trick step but I have crunched.my bumper 2x from backing up. Thinking of EZ STEP because it mounts to swing away and won't cruch bumper.
Feel free to post picture!

I’ve had the Easy Steps for 10 years if you back up and cut it too much it is possible to hit the bumper. I’m aware of it so don’t cut it as sharp on that side when backing up.

That’s what I’ve had the last 10 years and really like them.Originally Posted by badMackrel
I had those steps on a 2021 518. They were fine except for trying to step over stacked graphs on the bow. I also had the ultrex puck on the bow step pad, so not a lot of room to get into boat. I sold them and put on the ranger factory steps and I love those.
I installed Trick Steps on my '25 RT198P (tandem trailer). Love them so far, but as I learned the hard way, they too will hit the bumper on sharp cuts.
