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.

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.
