Don't quite understand how this installs... I'm thinking of installing it onto a VITO passenger van for seniors to step up its rear cabin.. Can it be installed under its chassis? Or solely on RV step? Thanks

It is designed to be a foldaway and stored into it's own little clip. It will install anywhere you have a place to bolt it to. It is also adjustable in height with the threaded center stud. I have installed one on the fold out steps of my travel trailer and it works perfect. When you need to move the vehicle, you just fold it up into it's storage clip. I highly recommend it!

You can mount on bumper or under door, my camper does not have a bumper so I mounted under door. Torklifts website has a mounting video and a table to figure out how many steps you need.

On top of the cab overlooking the bed would be an easy spot with self tapping screwed. Or on the tailgate again with screwes and a quick disconnect if you wanted to take the tailgate off.. I dont think you would want to mount it any lower as it may not give the view you would want. You could if you wanted mount under the bumper you would need to put a strong and very large like 4 or 5 inch wide and deep U channel around it to protect it

Make sure you have the legs up (the wings that fold under). You can use a rolled or folded towel or blanket to help level it, but do check the directions for forward and rear mounted one more time. I have Honda Pilot and I don't have a problem, but I did have to review directions for installation. I also had a fireman at a local fire department check out if I had it perfectly installed. They do this and they are so nice. As a Grandmother that was reassuring. (My car seat is in storage until our Granddaughter is here again, so that's why my first instructions probably don't label things correctly. Good luck.

Buy this whole assembly, I had it installed in under 3 minutes. Check youtube for videos to help with install. It is just held in with two plastic push in fasteners. Piece of cake!

I installed mine as shown in the picture. I believe it's the only way due to the predrilled holes, ect...They work great. As shown, the single toe, if you will, is facing forward of landing leg/RV. Concerning the the other two toes, one is attached going to the left rear frame, and the other to the right front frame (towards the other landing leg). Hope that helps.

i added the rear seat to mine which has a step pad to rest your feet on and this hitch with the receiver in it is tucked up under the rear step pad, which worked for me to hook a tow strap to pull a race car but you could not use this setup for a ball mounted on the receiver. the round hole is up under the step. i would have to do some measuring to see where it fits with the stock bag carrier mounted on the back. hope that helps.

Not through Amazon...remember if you purchase a grill pre-assembled you must then transport it to end location.I do not know anyone w/pickup truck or van....or wish to bother anyone (and damage van or grill ) !! Really not difficult to assemble.Good luck!

There is a video that shows exactly how to install it. It is either on the etrailer site or you can search it on YouTube. It's fairly simple. I did it in less than 30 minutes and I'm no expert at auto repairs.

I used mine for the steps on my RV, works great and i/3 the price of the rv step motor. But this is little help to you!.

It was a pretty simple install. I did it with a buddy because the cab and bed are awkward to scoot around. The kit was awesome and complete. Get a few logs to extend your jack so you can reach the cab through the frame. You could do the install by youself if need be

Look very close on each level and you will see a letter on each one that indicates where each level is to be mounted. One goes on the side and the other on the back. make sure you park rv on level area before installing.

I tried it on Suzuki Grand Vitara with a hard cover. On the GV, there is a back piece behind the spare tyre and a front piece that clamps onto the back piece. The back piece forms around the tyre, including curving forward slightly, maybe just an inch and a bit. Unfortunately, this prevented the rack from being mounted on the tyre. I suspect I would have to remove the front and back of the cover to try to make it fit. I did not want to remove the entire cover each time I wanted to put on the rack so I use it on the Jimny instead. I personally prefer the fit on the Jimny's 15" tyres since the rack rests on the rubber tyre rather than the rim. I tried it on Suzuki Grand Vitara with a hard cover.

Original design intention was to be installed on the side of the receiver. It will install very easily this way. You would have to modify your stock if you wanted to install differently.

Is there clear access to the mounting points? If you can drill holes in the floor and reach underneath the van to bolt the bed slide on, it should work.

Hay Terry, I'm 64 years old and mounted my steps on by my self without any trouble. I'm not sure if you'll need anything else to mount your steps or not, mine was for a 2005 Tundra and they bolted up with out any problem, if I can be of any help fill free to contract me.. Michael C.

We love using this unit with our RV travels, but also worried about it getting "legs". So I run a heavy cable lock through the handle and secure it to the RV. Also bought the Voltage Valet Cable Lock (from Amazon)that sounds a 110db alarm if it's jostled or the thin retractable cable is cut (cheap insurance at $12). Fellow RVers would likely take note of that! ((c8
