Timely post - thanks ! We just installed Glowsteps model A8004 (4-step) on our 2018 Reflection 303RLS last Wednesday, and received the Stromberg-Carlson AM533 assist handle from Amazon on Friday, but it's not installed yet. The only small issue with the Glowsteps installation was that the four class 5 mounting bolts supplied by Torklift were just a tad on the short side - could have been 1/4" to 1/2" longer. Had to temporarily install one bolt on each side without washer and lockwasher in order to "suck in" the approximately 1/4" space on each side between the original 303RLS bracket, install the other two bolts on each side complete with washers and lockwashers, and then go back and re-install the original two bolts c/w the washers and lockwashers. Only added about 10 minutes or so to installation of the steps. New assist handle will go on when I get around to it - LOL !

I didn't have that issue with my 303rls. In fact the Glowsteps were a tight fit. Probably just different tolerances in manufacturing by GD. Glowsteps does make a spacer kit with longer bolts for just such issues but it sounds like you got it handled. https://www.etrailer.com/Accessories...t/TLA8020.html

What is the minimum and maximum overall rise for these steps? I had a campsite recently where the gap between the bottom step and the ground had to be 18". It was a narrow paved site that was actually low on the door side. Had to block up the tires and the last step extended beyond the asphalt resulting in that massive drop-off. Will the Glowsteps extend far enough to make it all the way to the ground in this sort of situation?

In short , YES - but Check out the Torklift Glowsteps web page - will give you dimensions you will need to know and model numbers. The steps are adjustable for several different situation so can be used with MOST situations.https://www.torklift.com/rv/glowstep-revolution

There are a few drop points at the top and adjustments at the feet as well which makes the steps very adjustable. So far we have not run into a spot that it can't be adjusted at a comfortable position. The 4 step is perfect for the 303. You can call TorkLift with any questions and they will set you up with the right steps. I am pretty sure we have the 8004..
