Will this fit my hitch receiver?

This mounts to a standard hitch receiver. Confirm your receiver's pin diameter and tube size match before ordering—different vehicles use different receiver specs.

Do I need to bolt this down or can it slide in loose?

The step is designed for hitch receiver mounting, but the exact fastening method (pin, bolt, or slide-in) depends on your receiver type. Check your hitch manual or test-fit to confirm the mounting style before finalizing installation.

Will it stay folded while I'm driving?

The folding mechanism is built to stay in position, but vibration can cause occasional drift over time. A light rubber strap or bungee cord can lock it flat if you want guaranteed security on the road.
