Thinking about going step-less, putting ladders on old man guides, thoughts /mounting suggestions?
X2input/experience.
cut some flat stock 3/8" or 1/2" thick on an angle 2" x 4" and weld gussets under those ladder steps. In time, they're gonna bend.

So this is what I ended up doing, ladder on guide bars and no steps. I think it looks clean. A bit more to do then blast and paint. View attachment 991244 View attachment 991245 View attachment 991246
It will have a grab handle over the vent so you will have a third point of contact.Climbing a ladder is pain in the ass. Climbing a ladder that's tilted the wrong way is a bigger pain in the ass. Climbing a ladder that's tilted the wrong way when it's 115° is an even bigger pain in the ass. You'll be using the fenders as steps after the first day.
Put steps on the fender brackets.
