Frontrunner ladder on KZJ78

[Lenny33]

Does anybody out there have a Frontrunner ladder on a KZJ78 (not sure which rigs would have the same back door measurements)? Fairly certain that I have the wrong one (mine is about 35” long) - website indicates that a 76 wagon would have a ladder about 3” shorter.
I think I have it figured out, would just be nice to have some confirmation from someone that has the same truck and ladder.
Thanks!

where you able to find an answer? I wanted to purchase the front runner ladder too, product code LATL001 for a KZJ78.

That is the correct one. We install them all the time on KZJ78s. RIP your hinges though.

lol... what will happen to the hinges? I dont want to cause myself issues. Also, can you recommend another ladder? thanks in advance

I think he just means the weight of climbing on the ladder will take it’s toll on the door hinges similar to a stock door mounted Tire carrier.

How heavy are the ladders?

That sucks, because I was tryin to put 10 gallon fuel tanks behind my 33in BFGs. Picture attached below. That would add 70lbs minimum, in addition to the tire/wheel weight.

This is what I meant, yeah. The ladder is actually super light weight but the hinges do take a bit of toll from all the climbing.

Yeah, I made the mistake of getting the 78 version of that ladder, but it's sized for the Troopy. Guys at Frontrunner US were super helpful though, looks great and works like a champ.

Too funny, I did the opposite, accidentally ordered the 76 ladder for my troopy and only realized when I went to install and it was a few inches short!
