Video of Hitch Stair with 2 Steps for 2" Trailer Hitches
Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we're going to be taking a look at the Brophy hitch step. This is the 2-step style. It's designed for use in 2" hitches. It's part number is RHS2. It's a 2-step stair. It's designed to help get into the back of campers, on a pickup truck to get in the bed of campers.
A few other uses that we found it to be really good for is like on this Suburban here, we've got the roof rack up there. We're easily able to step up on here and access anything in the back portion of that rack that we need to get to that maybe our side steps don't allow us to get up onto the roof to do. Also, this is a great thing to have if you're out cleaning your vehicle, so you can really get up here to the roof and get a good angle on it and get it nice and clean. This is a completely assembly-free item. It's made of welded construction at all the connection points, so there's no bolts to deal with or anything to loosen up. It's got a black powder-coat finish on it.
We have 3 positions to choose from when we install it. We've got the first hole here, 6-1/2" from the back of our first step. The second hole's 3-1/2" from the back of that step. The third one that we see here is just a 1/2" behind the rear of the step. So this is going to give you multiple positions to fit a wide variety of vehicles. Now that we've gone over some of the key features, I'll show you how to install it.
It's a very simple process. Just like you would a ball mount, we're just going to slide it into the receiver tube of the hitch, line up one of the pin holes that we want to use. I'm thinking this application, that middle one looked like it worked the best. So we're just going to slide it in till the pin holes are lined up. Slide through our pin and secure it with our clip.
Now the pin and clip are sold separately. You can find those on our website as part number Pc3. Our steps have a diamond plate surface. That's going to help us out if we ever have any mud, rain, or snow on our shoes. The Brophy hitch stair offers a 250-lb. capacity. That will complete today's look at the Brophy 2-step hitch there, designed for use with 2" hitches, part number RHS2. .

my brother ordered the same item and told me where to find 'em. perfect fit, price EXCELLENT and arrived much faster than expected!! thanks, dave 90592
Still very happy with the steps, working as good as the first day i used them! Very strongwell built, paint still looks great/no chips!
dave - 01/23/2015Being somewhat disabled I had a hard time exiting my boat. With the help of these steps it is no longer an issue. These steps are solid. I used a small bumper receiver mounted unto the riser. Much easier to exit the boat now without the fear of missing my step on the trailer beam and falling or slipping. 390978
Great, still solid and no flex
David T - 06/09/2018This two step hitch stair setup was exactly what I was looking for to provide easy access to our truck camper. The steps feel very solid and secure when going in and out of the camper. I bolted on some 2x10s to make the steps even a bit larger. I painted the wood and added antislip strips for safety. I also offset the wood steps a bit as our camper door is offset to the left. Silas the dog has no trouble going up and down these stairs! Great price for a great product! 258102
If you have a truck camper, this step is a necessary addition. I've used this step in conjunction with a Lance 835 on a Dodge 3500 Dually. I'm in and out of my camper multiple times during the day when traveling. This step allows easy, fast ingress and egress. I recommend you don't use a hitch pin with this step. Use a bolt, two flat washers, lock washer and not. Tighten the bolt until all side to side play is removed. Much more stable and sold than a hitch pin, which allows some wobble. 457879
How great this product is. Saves us a lot of money because they work just as good as the other kind of camper steps. 142443
It is the best item we ever bought!!!!
Patricia H - 07/21/2015This step is a lot more sturdy than I anticipated when I bought it. It doesn't twist at all when I step on just one side or the other and it is about the right step separation distance for getting into the back of the camper door on a slide in camper. I thought about putting some grip tape used on skateboards on the steps but so far it doesn't seem to need extra traction. (the skateboarder kids buy sheets of the sand coated tape the size of a skateboard for way less than buying the same stuff at a parts house) The step is rather solid. 290448
My truck bed camper is so easy to access with hitch stair and extender. Having them has finished off my project perfectly. Thanks 439533
I came upon a reference to this product while searching on line for a receiver-mounted platform to replace the folding step stool we had been using to enter our Four-Wheel camper. It appeared to be just what we needed, and I found that it was an almost perfect fit. The top step is at nearly the same level as the step built into the bumper of our 2001 GMC Sierra, so this provides a large level place for our feet when we are exiting the camper. With the step unit inserted into the receiver with the middle hitch pit hole aligned, there is only a very small gap between the top step and the bumper step. I am not sure yet if we will be traveling with the steps in place, but I did install reflective red tape on the back edges of both steps, and on each side of the lower step, so that it is more visible. Be aware that the mounting bar of the step unit is not a tight fit in the receiver, so there is some movement when weight is placed off-center on the steps. Wrapping tape around the mounting bar, or perhaps inserting shims, might improve this situation. 142229
Exactly what I was looking for to add to my new camper delivered extremely fast 715645
Another rocket shipment from you folks. Even with the pouring rain I had to try the RHS2 on my F250 with a class five hitch. Better than expected! At eighty years and both knees replaced, I can now climb into the truck bed SAFELY without the risk of falling. Thanks again, Rick H. 711908
Excellent step. Will use it to get into my camper. First step is a little high off the ground but not bad. Just a bit higher of a leg lift than normal steps 711036
Even nicer than expected. And communication from seller was a quick as i seen in forever. I experience a lot of lag typically online but they were same day reply time. Awsome, professional. 708344
I have a pop-up camper on my F-150 pickup. This step is perfect for this application. I especially like to adjustable feature of the receiver post. Thanks for the quick free shipping too! Mike D 706101
Sturdy, easy to install. I painted the edges of each step red since I plan to leave them in place while driving. 705802
this step is the best thing ever I use it on the back of a rake body land escape truck 704463
I've been using these steps for about a year now and have no complaints. They are a good fit for my truck and overhead camper. I highly recommend adding an anti-rattle clamp. 634153
Works perfect for getting up onto our flatbed truck. 617548
the step works great with our pickup truck camper. it makes it very easy to get in and out. installation is very smple 614729
I just bought a new pontoon boat. My wife has trouble with her knees and had a very hard time climbing up onto the trailer tongue to get into the boat. I bought these steps and welded a receiver to the trailer. She can go up and down like a champ now. And they're removable so they don't interfere with launching the boat. 613481
Works perfect for my slide in truck cam per 604077
I love my step. I live in my truck full time and getting in and out is much easier and safer. I have to back out but I know where the step is and can find it safely. 602697
Looks great I think it's perfect for my truck camper set up. The product is very well make heavy metal I will upload pictures when I get the camper on the truck 597210
Happy about the purchase. It's a bit cumbersome, but it's sturdy and works the way it is described and looks. Solid buy. 588593
From the ordering of your product to the delivery was flawless and went very well. When my friends and co-workers see your product they will be excited as well. Thanks, Bill 580202
Fast friendly service, product was as a dvertised. 578630
I have a 1947 Flatbed truck. The step is to get onto flat bed. It works perfectly . Just a little wobble. I will make a shim for that. Shipped quickly and arrived in good shape although the box was a little damaged. 564367
Seemed to work well though heavy. After less than a year bottom step gave up both welds, now dangerous and must be mickey moused or tossed. Do something else. 564124
Just what we were looking for. Very st urdy. 563682
I like it! I use my '55 Grumman (Doughboy) for camping and was looking for an alternative to carrying around a stool/step to put on the ground. I came across this Hitch Stair and I already had a 2" receiver on Doughboy, so figured I'd give it a try. I was going to make one myself, but didn't want to take the time. It does have a little "wobble" in it, but that could also be my receiver. I just carry a couple of wooden shims with me to make it steady and it works just fine. I recommend it! 562189
great products, great price thanks 558263
very well made fits perfect would recommend to others and the price was right 543139
A perfect solution for our camper. Seems sturdy and well built. 526472
Good sturdy product 523809
Works very well for this bigger guy. Sturdy construction. 522776
I was recommended to etrailer.com by Brophy Machine works. They told me that they keep a good stock of their products. So I did not explore any other ways or places to purchase the items I needed and went directly to them for an order. It was pretty simple to order on their site and the products came within a few days. I am very happy with their service. 516597
BOUGHT THESE STEPS AND & RECEPTACLE TO GO ON MY BOAT TONGUE TO BE ABLE TO STEP UP OR DOWN SAFELY. THEY WORK PERFECT & ARE EXTREMLY SAFE GETTING IN OR OUT OF THE BOAT. QUALITY PRODUCT AT A FAIR PRICE. I WILL ALSO ADD THEY ARE VERY STURDY & HOLD ME UP JUST FINE & I'AM 250 512195
This step works great right out of the box , couldn't ask for better ,, 511878
Using on a 17 Ram with a Four Wheel Camper. Diamond Tread is nice but doesn't really seem to help a lot. Each vehicle is different and while it should work fine for us, the top step is about even with our step bumper. 506055
I love the Hitch Stair! It is sturdy and a perfect addition for my camper. As a 70 year old solo traveler, I can handle the hitch stair easily, and the dogs and I can exit and enter the camper without effort. It was just what was needed. Good quality and good price! 499632
Great step. Not to big so we can put in camper when not in use. 497150
This product showed up very quickly at my door! It is very well made and the adjustable attachment is critical for a truck camper. I'm very pleased with the durability and it could also be used for getting in and out of the truck even if it wasn't being used for a camper. etrailer is one of my favorite sites for excellent service. 490471
Fantastic! You guys ROCK!
Brian K - 03/29/2019Have not used the steps yet but they appear to be well made and I believe they will suit my needs. 488327
This step makes it much easier to get in my truck camper. Had to put adhesive grip strip on them for better traction. My dog needed it more than I. And if it folded for travel and space that would be great. 485529
It works great. It is a bit bulky to transport in my camper though. 479537
Very pleased with everything. Thanks for the great service. 478424
I BOUGHT THIS 2 STEP RECIVER HITCH AND WE LOVE IT.IT HAS STOOD UP WELL WITH NO PROBLEMS. 475741
Steps work great, look great and priced right. Love them. I will be using them with my truck camper. They are the perfect height. 473797
I recently purchased trailer hitch steps that fit into a 2 inch socket. The product is really well made with top quality welding and materials. We are in the Motion picture catering business and will add this product to all of our film catering trucks. The order was shipped in two days and we put it to use immediately. Great purchase. Thanks again!! 473302
This step is well made and has held up good on our F-450 flatbed dump. was a great value for the money 457648
Wouldn't be without it. I use it on my flat deck landscaping truck which sits high. This step easily let's me climb in and out of the back of my truck which I do very often. Great quality. Awesome addition to my setup 446691
