Expert Reply:

The HitchMate TruckStep Extendable, Hitch Mounted Step for 2" Hitches - 9" x 6" - 500 lbs # HE4045 is the only extendable step we carry that reaches that far. We do have hitch extenders that have the step for that same purpose like the Brophy Hitch Extender with Step for 2" Trailer Hitch Receivers 18" # ST18 or the Brophy Hitch Extender with Step - 2" Hitches - 19" Long - 6-1/2" x 17" Platform # ST12 (14inch extension). These won't extend quite as far out from the tailgate to give you the same angle with the tailgate down but are more for helping you reach inside the bed with the tailgate up.
