Steps

The steps on our trailer are QUITE difficult to put up or down.
Is this normal?
Maybe to prevent them from falling while traveling?

BTW - I'm in pretty good shape and still find them very hard - my wife can't put them up or down by herself and she's in good shape too.

I've greased them where the manual says to....

The steps on my 2013 Alpine were very stiff as well. I sprayed all the pivot points with WD-40 and it loosened them up after a couple of days.

Mine do the same thing. Like LZScout, I spray them with lubricant, but I use dry lube that's for my slides, because its the first can of stuff I come to in the storage compartment. I spray them often to keep them from getting too stiff. They're still a little stiff, but manageable. I think you're right, if they were too loose, they might come out while traveling.
