    No lift needed just use rolling stairs!!! You can bucket wash, dry and wax your coach inside and escape the heat!!!

    Brady, I’ve been looking for the “right” rolling stairs. The ones I’ve found were either just too short or too tall. The stairs in your picture seems like a good choice.

    Do you have any info on the model/manufacturer?

    Thanks,

    No name or manufacturer as same kind you see in the isles at Lowe’s or Home Depot. I have the shorter version to that works well for cleaning windshields..

    my experience with it has proven it to be slightly better than armour all. Havn`t tried their ceramic wax. Usually it is overpriced silicone based and overrated at at car shows.I keep returning to Lucas or Aerowax due to it`s non streaking results.

    Their are many other products peddled at car shows ,but way overpriced usually. Lucas is @ $7.50 at wally world, no shipping costs.

    Les,

    When you price those rolling stairs, you may find you can buy a used sissor lift for the same money. That is what I did and it is very useful for more than the bus.

    Mikee,

    Ideally I would want a battery powered scissor lift with remote control from the platform. It needs to be small – one man. Oh, fitting through a 3-0 door would be a plus. Around $5k or less… The platform needs to rise about 10 feet so I could easily reach the top of the bus..

    Seen anything like that. Used, needing batteries would be OK. 🙂

    Via the hospitality of Brady and a connection from Tommy Duhon I’ve been in “Brady’s hangar” (aka his bus barn). You can imagine my surprise when I saw the rolling stairs. I thought, “Brady has stuff I never even thought of getting.”

    First class place, first class people.

    Les, Craigslist or any of the Rental companies is a good source for lifts, or stairs

    Hi Les,

    The one I bought for FL is a 3219 Skyjack. It is 32″ wide and goes to 19′. It fits thru a 3-0 door and is battery operated. It was 2,000 plus 300 delivery. It is older, but works fine for my needs. On the battery note, Skyjack and Genie both suggest not using agm batteries. Sunbelt tried them to reduce maintenance, the test was a failure. One thing that does help a bunch is using water miser caps on the batteries.

    The lift comes in handy a lot. It does make you real popular with the neighbors as well, lol…

    Mikee,

    Glen said that if I could beat the price you paid, I could have one… I told him that you were the ultimate negotiator and not to expect me to beat it. I did find a couple of Skyjack SJ12’s that were around $3k…

    Let me see if I got this right. When you wax my coach in 2025 you want me to provide a scissors lift, but you will not get one for your coach?

    What’s wrong with this picture???????
