Today we are going to show you the HitchMate TruckStep, part number HE4045. The HitchMate TruckStep secures to any class III or higher 2 inch receivers with a traditional 5/8 hitch pin. It extends 23-1/2 inches from the receiver and has a 500 pound weight capacity. The TruckStep is designed to extend far enough that you can use the step even with the tailgate down. To extend the TruckStep, pull the pin and the system slides out. And when you hit the end, it locks back into place. With the TruckStep in the extended position, we will be able to lower our tailgate and still be able to use the TruckStep. You can also use the TruckStep in the retracted position with the tailgate up. When not in use, you can fold the TruckStep up so that you do not risk hitting your shins walking behind the vehicle. And that will do it for part number HE4045.
