A step attachment device which attaches to the fender of a vehicle such as a road grader to provide easy access to the engine compartment or other locations during service or repair. The step attachment device generally includes a bracket adapted to be secured to a vehicle and a step attachment which is pivotally connected to the bracket. The bracket includes an inner end which is connected to the vehicle using second openings and fasteners. The step attachment is pivotally connected to the outer end of the bracket via a fastener and pivot mount. The step attachment is pivotable between at least two positions: a first raised position in which the step attachment rests on the upper end of the bracket and a second lowered position in which the step attachment extends from the bracket for use as a step.
