New Holland offers for sure a left hand (foot) step and maybe a right side one. You might not like the price, but they are offered.

Northern Tool has a universal flip up tractor step. Don't know if it will work for you but it's a start....

If you get on and off at the same location, like a shed you can get a plastic 2 step stool for about $10 and set it by the rear tire just outside the front tire track and get on the tractor and back out away from the step. Then when coming back to the shed drive back to the same spot to dismount. It works for me. Step stools available at home depot and other stores.

Great for at least tempory use until you find something better. I use a 2 step like the lower one in the link.

Bought my TC 33D used and did not want the mmm, and asked about a step. The Parts man showed the original equipment step and instant sticker shock set in. He then brought out this step and I walked out the door $15 lighter. It was actually longer and I cut it down with the appropriate angle and attached it to the existing tabs. I dug out the sales receipt and got a part # of 86401196. MESSICK's list it in stock (only 1, better hurry) for less than $30. A TRACTOR HOUSE parts search list a few other dealers around the country with it in stock. See what you think.

Looks realy good.Gives me ideas how to make my own .A little insite goes along way . Also curious about engine block heater cord shown in picture. is it original or after market? Original says the cord is removable ?I dont want to crawl under tractor every time i plug it in . Or does the original stay there? thanks for great pictures.:thumbsup:

Cord can stay with tractor and usually does. But it simply plugs into the element and can be removed seasonally or replaced separately from element.
