Camco10,000 lb CapacityHeavy-Gauge SteelCamco 43681 RV Save-A-Step Brace -- Adjustable 4-5/8" to 8"

A wobbly RV entry step is more than an annoyance -- it stresses the step mechanism, accelerates wear on mounting hardware, and creates a real trip hazard. The Camco 43681 Save-A-Step Brace drops into place under your RV entry steps in seconds, providing a solid steel support column that stops sag, flex, and coach rocking before it causes damage.

Stop Step Sag Before It Becomes a Safety Problem

RV entry steps -- whether manual fold-down or electric -- hang off the coach frame and flex under repeated use. Over time, that flex bends mounting brackets, strips fasteners, and can crack step treads. The Save-A-Step Brace transfers load directly to the ground, taking the stress off the step hardware and the coach side wall.

Setup is tool-free. Slide the brace under the lowest step, turn the 3/4" metal screw head to extend or retract the column until it contacts the ground firmly, and you are done. The 4.02" x 4.02" base pad distributes the load and resists sinking into soft ground or gravel pads.

Adjustable Height

Screw-adjust from 4-5/8" to 8" to match virtually any RV entry step clearance without tools.

10,000 lb Capacity

Heavy-gauge steel construction handles up to 10,000 lbs -- far beyond typical entry step loads.

Wide Base Pad

4.02" x 4.02" pad spreads load and prevents the brace from tipping or punching into soft surfaces.

Reduces Coach Rocking

Adds a grounded contact point under the step, cutting side-to-side coach movement at the entry.

Instant Stability, No Drilling Required

The Save-A-Step Brace requires zero permanent modifications. Place it, adjust it, use it. Remove it before driving. It works equally well at campgrounds, driveways, and gravel sites.

Who Should Use This Brace
  • Owners of older coaches where step mounting hardware has loosened over the years
  • Full-timers who enter and exit the RV dozens of times per day
  • Anyone who has noticed their step flexing or the coach rocking when boarding
  • Campgrounds with softer ground where unsupported steps sink or tilt
Placement and Use Tips
  • Position the brace as close to centered under the step tread as clearance allows
  • Extend the screw until the pad makes firm contact -- do not overtighten
  • On grass or soft soil, place a small board under the pad for added stability
  • Always retract and stow the brace before moving the vehicle
  • Inspect threads and the pad surface seasonally for corrosion or wear
Step Clearance Note

This brace is designed for steps with 4-5/8" to 8" of ground clearance when deployed. Measure your lowest step-to-ground distance before ordering. Steps that sit higher than 8" or lower than 4-5/8" when extended are outside this brace's adjustment range.
