Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know whether I have the later ladder? A: Check the identification label for the model and a manufacture date after February 2010.
Q: Does the kit include both sides? A: Yes. It is a paired hinge-arm and spring repair kit.
Q: Can I replace just one arm? A: A matched pair helps keep movement even; inspect both sides and follow the ladder manufacturer’s repair guidance.
Q: Are replacement springs included? A: This listing is described as a hinge-arm and spring kit. Compare every pictured component with your existing mechanism because other 55-2 kits are sold without springs.
Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is an aftermarket item. Brand, model, and part numbers identify fitment only; compare the original part and the listing details before ordering.
