I spoke to my contacts at Curt and Reese and the only styles of hitches that can be made to fit a service body truck like your Fedex step van are multi-fit RV hitches like the #41990 that has a 16k capacity. This is a weld on hitch that would require…
In these days of customer "no service" I am usually disapointed when doing business with people I don't know. It was refreshing doing business with you. I'm impressed!

Fixed Step Hitch Step with 7 Inch Deep Platform
Step up with confidence on a 7 inch deep platform paired with a fixed step for simple, ready footing at the hitch. These mount solidly but can have a little play in the receiver; an anti-rattle device helps lock things down for surer footing. Be aware some vehicles' backup sensors may detect a hitch-mounted step, and inverting a step to add rise is not tested and may affect weight capacity.
Some steps can be flipped physically, but that setup may be untested and could change the weight capacity. Check the manufacturer's instructions before reconfiguring. If you need extra height, consider a hitch stair style that provides built-in rise instead. Also measure bumper-to-hitch clearance so the step doesn't contact your bumper when installed.
It should feel solid underfoot, but expect a little play from normal hitch tolerances. Add an anti-rattle clamp to reduce movement for more confident footing. Use the correct hitch pin and fully tighten the step's hardware. If your step uses end caps with screws, pre-drilling pilot holes can make assembly easier and help everything cinch down tight.
Yes, a step with a non-slip grate design provides confident traction in wet and snowy weather. Still place your foot centered on the step and avoid the very edge to reduce the chance of slipping. Wear grippy footwear, especially in the cold. Verify the step's weight rating if you're a heavier user; some report secure footing at 300 lbs, but always check the label on yours.
It can. Some updated sensors detect hitch steps and may alarm. Check your sensor angle—aiming down can increase false alerts. Adjusting the sensor angle, relocating sensors, or temporarily disabling them are common solutions. If your sensors detect a typical hitch accessory with a drop, expect them to pick up a fixed step as well.
