I have a 1986 LD and was wondering if there is a roof ladder after market that works with the rear curve.  Thanks, Ron fron San Clemente

Note three things, Ron:

- Your roof may not have appropriate reinforcement if you intend to use it for additional storage.

- Your escape hatch over the front bed is far more easily broken into than a typical 14" vent by anyone gaining roof access via the ladder, and already provides emergency maintenance access to the roof.

- Lazy Daze probably stocks the ladder, if you go that route anyway.

I tried to buy a ladder a few years ago from Lazy Daze for a friends LD . Ed would not sell me me one.
He told me that the roof, wall and curve needed internal reinforcement. This is done when a new LD is built with the optional ladder.

Lazy Daze has the ladder/roof rail needed to retro-fit your rig.  It is bent to wrap around the rear bulge; and it mounts to pre-installed blocking in the structure.

Ron, I have a '87 22', and had a roof ladder added. Can't tell you anything about the brand - had an RV shop do it. Didn't seem to be a big deal to them. Sarah, in Seattle

Just about every picture I've seen of any model LD shows the ladder.  Is the ladder an option, or standard equipment, on the new LD's?
