At \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"168\"\u003eWEST COAST VANS\u003c\/b\u003e, we know that quick, secure roof access is vital for maximizing your rig's utility, but generic side ladders often come with a frustrating catch—they block your expensive side T-vent or bunk window panels from cracking open. Enter the Orion Van Gear Sprinter Wheel Wrap Side Ladder—the ultimate space-optimized, exterior-access upgrade engineered explicitly for high-roof Sprinters. This isn't a bulky, heavy iron gate; it’s a featherweight, two-piece 1.25-inch structural aluminum powerhouse that contours elegantly around your rear driver-side wheel well. Now fully updated with ultra-stable 11-inch flat steps and featuring integrated laser-cut accessory mounting points, it gives you an incredibly narrow, windows-clear profile while serving as a heavy-duty modular spine for your exterior gear.

Pro Tip: Because Orion Van Gear upgraded each flat step with laser-cut carriage bolt slots on both the front and back sides, these rungs do double duty. Use the built-in slots to cleanly anchor quick-release accessory brackets directly to the ladder frame. You can effortlessly mount compact recovery boards, outdoor gear pods, or specialized water canisters right onto the side of the ladder without drilling custom holes or blocking your footholds when climbing up to the deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePRODUCT OVERVIEW\u003c\/b\u003e The Orion Van Gear Sprinter Wheel Wrap Side Ladder is an exterior utility and roof access system built explicitly for high-roof Mercedes Sprinter owners who value window functionality and modular gear mounting.

It hugs the body tightly and curves around the wheel arch, leaving ample clearance for T-vent panels and side bunk windows to vent fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"28\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"28\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: What is the benefit of the new flat steps compared to the older round style?\u003c\/b\u003e A: The updated flat steps provide a significantly wider and more stable platform for your feet, reducing slipping hazards when climbing with wet boots. Additionally, the flat faces allow for integrated laser-cut carriage bolt points to mount external gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"29\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"29\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Is drilling into my van required to install the standard Stealth+ version?\u003c\/b\u003e A: Yes. The standard ladder anchors directly into the side profile of the Stealth+ Roof Rack via three attachment points, which requires drilling into the rack frame for a rock-solid, rattle-free connection. The lower leg anchors firmly to your van's structural pinch seam using the included non-destructive bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"30\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"30\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Do I need to have an Orion roof rack for this side ladder to work on my Sprinter?\u003c\/b\u003e A: Not necessarily. While the standard version is built for the Stealth+ rack, we offer a dedicated \"Roof Rail Bracket\" version. This adapter option allows you to install the ladder directly into your van’s factory OEM roof tracks if you don't run a platform rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"31\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"31\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWHY TRUST WEST COAST VANS?\u003c\/b\u003e Every product we sell is vetted by our team of builders in our San Clemente shop.
