Custom bending stairs

Just a cautionary tale.

For those of us with rear mounted stairs, 2955RL and such.

Be carefull going over curbs or areas that have a big drop. Don't ask.
Ferries that don't have the ramp adjusted properly or parking lots.
I realized I was in trouble TOO LATE. If I'd angled my way out of the parking lot the stairs would have been ok but I forgot and now they can't be used untill I get home and unmangle them. I realize I got lucky, as it is, because the rear cap must have been a 1/4" away from scraping.

So watch those curbs, parking lots, ferry ramps, etc. or any big drop where the axles may be in a dip and the trailer end cap is over a high area.
May you have better luck than I.
