How to Stabilize the Curt Grip Step Trailer Hitch Mounted Step
Question:
How solid does this sit in the hitch receiver? The ball mount I use for occasional towing tends to "bounce" around in the hitch receiver so I'm just trying to figure out if I'll have solid footing or not.

Expert Reply:
The Curt Grip Step Trailer Hitch Mounted Step for 2" Trailer Hitches # C25KR will be solid and stable enough to stand on, but there will be a little play in the hitch receiver due to built-in tolerances (which is normal for hitch products).
To eliminate this you just need the Malone Anti-Rattle HitchLock System # MPG908 which essentially clamps the shank part of the step to the hitch receiver and keeps it from moving around.
