How to Determine if the Carr Mega Step Fold-Up Step # CARR190011 Will Clear Rear Door
Published 07/23/2015 >
Question:
I have a 2013 MB Sprinter van with the factory 2x2inch receiver hitch. Can you confirm if the back doors can be opened without hitting the step with it installed in the hitch and folded up? Thanks,

If you measure from the top of your hitch opening up to the bottom of your rear doors and that distance is over 3-3/4 inches the Carr Mega Step Fold-Up Step # CARR190011 that you referenced will clear.
I went out and measured one that we have in stock to get that figure.
If you plan to leave this on your vehicle you might also want a hitch lock to deter theft. For that you would want the # 1480DAT.
