Question:
I want to replace the single step on my 2010 Coleman Niagara with a double step. The issue that arises is that Coleman uses some kind of spacers on its steps- the step is 20inch wide, and the hangers are 24.5inch wide- too narrow for a 24inch replacement, and too wide for a 20inch replacement. Advice?

For your 2010 Coleman Niagara, the dimensions you gave are a big help. There isn't a perfect fit for the current setup, so you will need to use what is called an outrigger. You can use the Flexco Manual Pull-Out Steps for RVs - Double - 8" Drop/Rise - 20" Wide - 300 lbs # SMFP-2120 along with the Lippert Outriggers for Manual and Electric RV Steps # LC301704 to give you the correct fit and stability. You will use hardware # LC118155-72 to make them compatible.
Note--You may use an Outrigger on one side and factory mount on the other.
