How to Use a Hitch Step in a 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch
Question:
can I get 2 one half in that has a drop ?
asked by: Gary
Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you but there are not hitch steps that have a drop and fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch. First you will need a reducer sleeve such as # C45405. Then you could use hitch step # RHS2 which is 2 steps with the first step with a drop below the hitch receiver. None of the other steps really have a drop with the exception of # HE4045 or # HE4037.
