Specs:
This hitch-mounted step makes it easy to hop into the back of your truck bed or reach your luggage rack. And it easily extends so that you can use the step with your tailgate down.
To extend the step, simply pull the knob on the side of the support arm out and pull the step toward you. To slide the step back into the retracted position, simply pull the same knob on the side of the support arm while you push the step in toward your hitch.
You can fold this step assembly to sit flush with your bumper when the step is not in use. This keeps the step from becoming an obstacle.
Simply pull the knob that sticks out of the bottom of the support arm. This allows you to pivot the step assembly to the side.
Simply release the knob when the step assembly is in the stowed position.

This is a great addition to my truck. My wife loves it too. Easy checkout and the shipping upgrade was a bonus. I highly recommend this product and this company.
Kevin - 10/11/2020Great product especially for the price, pros-installs easily, at the right height to readily get in the bed on my f250, latches are positive and easy to use, extending the step makes it work well when the tailgate is down, nice wide step, seems to be very sturdy Cons- the receiver only fits in the first hole Spot, the spare tire on my f250 won’t let the receiver go fartherIn to the second, closer to the bumper, hole. The step pad has a fair amount of play side to side. I’d buy it again and recommend to a friend
Works great. I welded a receiver to the frame and use it to step into the cab.
I have used my Hitch step for about a year now and all I have to say is that Hitch step has preformed 100% percent! I find myself using it about 30 to 50 times each week. I own a new Ram 2500 that sets high in the air getting into the back bed was a job in it self until I purchased the Hitch step. I have looked at many options for my truck but the hitch step was the only one that made all around sense. It is a made of metal and very easy to extend out and put away and another thing I like was once I put Hitch step away it does not stand out in your way but goes neatly under the bumper. I have had many people stop me and asked me where I purchased Hitch step because like me, they wanted a step that did not take up space in bed of the truck or having to go threw a number of steps to make the other type steps to be able to use them. The Hitch step is quick and easy along with working great! Like I said above it makes all around sense.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't have found a better product to fit my needs then this. Installs easily into the receiver. I needed a step that stows away and this was it. Great customer service as well.
James R - 04/17/2020For us older folks this step works great! Even better for younger, more spry users.
Everything about this product was as advertised .I got my package in only 3 days. For the price I don't think you can do any better. Seems very sturdy. I noticed a couple of reviews said they had to file out the receiver to get it to fit. They must have had some type of aftermarket receiver. The receiver I have on my truck came with my F-150 and it fit perfectly. It took every bit of 30 seconds to put it on.
The product is very heavy duty and was shipped in a timely manor
Works as advertised. Only wish it had an additional detent at a 45 degree angle so you could grab the box corner of the truck when stepping in or out....Otherwise solid item and helpful for getting into the bed even with the tailgate down
The step hitch does not work the step needs reengineering it has to much slope in it
I looked everywhere and consulted with multiple dealerships, looking for a rear step bumper for my new truck I could not find anything until I happened upon etrailer.com Not only did the have what I needed, the pricing was very competitive, and once ordered, they upgraded the shipping at no charge to expedite the delivery. This was an excellent purchase and the customer service, including updated delivery information was very much appreciated. I would recommend their services t anyone looking for products they stock and sell. Thank you!
I have a 2019 Ram Pickup. The tail gate is too high for me to comfortably step up to, so I've been looking for a step. I talked with a friend who had a step that extended out and swung in, but it wasn't long enough to use with the tailgate down. I then found this swing-away extending step. 1. It was shipped quickly by etrailer; 2. Very sturdy feeling; 3. It fit into my 2" factory-unit hitch and was easy to install; 4. In the fully collapsed/stored in position, it sticks out about 2" beyond my hitch/bumper (this is with the unit pushed all the way into the hitch) and a portion of the step is about 2 1/2" beyond my bumper; 5. In the stored position, it does not interfere with my dual exhaust; 6. When swung out for use and extended to the first detent, I can use it to step onto the tailgate; 7. The "no slip" pad is stable (and will be better than my friend's all metal, slippery step). This (and a hitch lock) were my first purchases from etrailer, but they won't be my last.
Fantastic service exceptional product. Will recommendation to all my friends. Your company is above and beyond in all areas
This is a good concept that needs improvements: Provide about 50% larger step as it’s difficult to see when stepping off the tailgate. Reposition the step slide to the side of thehitch to improve ground clearance.
Nicely made and works like a dream with the tailgate. Ours has the slot for the 5th so it is even better...
Garry H - 09/22/2020I purchased the extendable mounted truck step as a Christmas gift for my husband and am happy to report that he loves it! It was getting more difficult to jump into the back of his Tundra (the age factor!), and I worried he would hurt himself. This step was the perfect solution, and he loves that it swings in and out. Thank you for a great product.
I own a Chevy Silverado 2500. when I first purchased it I had to re- drill the holes in it to get it to fit. That was a pain in the Butt. Thank God I had the metal drills to do it. When buying it , should be ready to fit into trailer hitch. Other than that it was excellent and has been a godsend on getting up into the pickup bed to get things out. I like it very much.
Best step I could buy. Installed on my 2019 Honda Ridgeline and works well when the tailgate is up down or when it swings open. I am 75 years old and I would recommend this step to anyone.
Works great. Very sturdy and allows me to reach areas I could not reach without a step and folds completely out of the way.
Installed in minutes no assembly required F150 I keep step stool to get in bed of truck this unit is great tailgate up or down I can step up & it folds away very good price for quality product
Mike - 07/15/2019Works as expected with a few modifications. Had to drill another pin hole for it to be secure and out of the way when folded up for my particular hitch type.
Great item!
Great product with my newer truck being higher it works exactly as I’d hoped it would. Times when I just need it folded in and others when swung out with tailgate up and extended with gate down. My grandsons 6 and 5 also can work it as they love to “help” me in my projects. Buying another for my son’s truck so they can “help” him. Thanks For a well built and sturdy product.
I use it all the time and have 4 friends that have bought one because they liked the convenience.
