So, how much weight can it support before the hooks straighten out?
Some of us are bigger than average......

Good deal. I'm 250, but I figure if I'm holding something (like a turbo or something), it would need to be able to hold me plus various bits & goodies that might be going on & off... LOL

Then talk to WA Ranger (Jeff) because that's who created the step.
That's a Jeff Step.

Yup. Credit goes to Jeff. Any other is a rip off of his work.

Not trying to be a jerk, Andrew, but you really should have made sure you gave credit to Jeff in your initial post.
Credit where credit is due and all...but up front, from the git go.
