Getting out of the truck required me to jump off the tailgate; eventually I was going to misjudge the landing and hurt myself."
"Awesome product, so easy to install, makes getting in out of of the truck bed much easier, would have ordered way sooner but it's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for, excellent quality."
"It makes getting in and out of the bed much easier and even safer when things are icy out."
"Not bad, purchased a return item, saved considerable $, and still received the $50 rebate!"
"I have a 2015 Dodge dually with a 4" lift and 37" tall tires, so this was a must have."
"During installation, a small support for the outside of the bumper is removed and not reinstalled."
"The bed step is a great idea but the cost is way too high."
"This is soooo cool."
It’s a utility step and a bumper guard. Provides easy access to truck beds, roof racks and SUV interiors.

"I would strongly suggest buying a hitch lock as this is an item some may want to borrow and never return it."
"So, after cutting 1 inch off and drilling an extra set of holes so as to let it slide in an extra inch it looks much nicer."
"Others have mentioned that the end caps can come off, so I was going to glue them on, but found that, even though they are loose around the edges, they are attached in the middle to some sort of a bracket, so I left them alone. It cost less than the plastic alternative brand, it sturdier (no flex when standing on it) and no sharp corners to bump your shin or knee on."
"My Cherokee has all the latest (meaning costly) saftey options with sensors embedded in the car's plastic rear bumper."
"My Frontier had a steel read bumper."
"They sent me a whole new step free of charge and didn't even want me to ship the other one back."
"Works Well as a step for my kids to get into our SUV."

It tucks neatly out of the way and there are no additional pieces to haul around (like the ladders or removable steps that fit over tires)."
"In the end, I decided to go with the AMP Research step because I was nervous for the buttons on my shirt."
"Bestop's version had an aluminum step with a gritty surface and AMP uses a heavy-duty molded plastic step."
"Bought for a gift and I have used it a lot too."
"Work great!"
"Add to their tool list a 3 inch extension when it comes to re-mounting the bumper nuts, and if you don't have a 21mm socket, a 13/16 works just fine. Just use a regular 6 point socket, I have a 21mm impact socket, but the socket was too thick."
"My only concern is how the step itself will hold up over time."
"Easy to use, easy to step up onto bumper or tailgate. Ford's tailgate with built in step was a $3000 option and this was $200....plus you can use this when a trailer is hooked up or when the tailgate is off."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"To help make this unit fit more solidly in the receiver, I drilled an additional "pin" hole in the part of the unit that fits into the receiver of my vehicle. The method I sued to determine the location of the hold was to push the part of the unit that fits into the receiver into the receiver until I could feel the unit become "flush" with the back of the receiver."
"I actually had to put some additional weight on the tips of boards near the front of bed because they were lifting up, and consequently a LOT of weight was on the extender and held strong!"
"Like another reviewer, I am thinking of welding angle braces to support all of the leverage placed upon the , short thin metal welds on the right angle mast section near the hitch end. I would like to see the manufacturer tighten up the fit between the long mast piece and the bracket sleeve that fits over it, and include a hitch brace clamp for the receiver end. Overall, for the affordable price, plus a little extra time and parts, it now feels solid enough to suit my usage of occasionally needing to carry long items and materials, well within load ratings for the rack."
"2) Hitch Tightener Brackets Anti Wobble Cargo Carrier Rack 1.25" 2" No Rattle. I like that it has reflection tape and several strap holes and adjustment holes and how versatile and economically priced but it is heavy and loose in the receiver."
"Affordable and low quality as a result, But I used the advice from another reviewer and this product works great."
"The upper part will also come off and slide over extension shaft for easy storing."
"A hitch tightener is needed, and even that won't fix the dragging issues as the log bar is straight and bent upward."

"Great."
"if you surf, and don't want to hide your key on your car or suit, buy this, i love it and its sturdy and discrete, buy a few extra caps incase they get stolen or you forget to put it back on."
"The product should include both screw sizes."
"Doesn't fit in Dads 4runner , getting my truck in a month ..."
"excellent - I'd been using a simple hanging box off the chassis of my truck for a spare key and remote while out in the woods, but now that I'm back in the city half the time this will be safer - perfect for days I go to the beach and want to lock my valuables in the truck, or if I lose my keys while camping."
"this is a must have for all surfers with trucks."
"During installation the only way I could fit the HitchSafe in my stock Hitch is if I were to jam it in by hitting it with a hammer or my foot."

"20 minutes later after using the grinder and a hand file I had created a notch that allowed the tightener to be installed flat to the receiver bar."
"The rack does not wobble anymore."
"When I replied the seller's follow up email they sent me replacement nuts for my first order because originally my first order came with regular (not zinc plated) and "some customers had issues with them". Next orders came with zinc plated nuts."
"This bracket works as advertised and is a breeze to install."
"Now I keep this one for a back up to the other one because the bolts don't tighten flat on the plate."
"I installed it on my Jeep in April 2017 and we towed our trailer camping on Memorial Day weekend. Prior to having this, there was a near constant clunking from the towbar due mostly to the horrible tollway roads in Chicagoland."
"Seriously, why bother making your own when this is so cheap to buy but sturdy materials."

"Update. Bulbs work great with the resistor."
"Works well with 2002 mini cooper."
"I bought these for a 2009 Piaggio MP3 scooter."
"Very bright, it did throw a light on a 2007 VW Jetta, but the quality of product is good and very bright."
"I bought this two pack of bulbs for my father car,very good illumination much farther down the road."
"I purchase these for a 2006 Yukon Denali they would not fit, the fitting was to broad, it wouldn't go down far enough to turn and lock."
"Dimmer than the side marker lights on my car!"
Best Towing Hitch Wiring
Custom design bolts directly to factory mounting points on the rear of the vehicle, very similar design to the OE Receiver Hitch. Built to match the tow capacity of your Jeep.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The wirering fits all OEM fastener holes but again the instructions lack."
"The most difficult part to figure out was accessing the bolt to add the washer and nut on the bumper side. BUT what I did was simply loosen the bumper and I was able to raise it up enough to put the washer and nut on and tighten everything up."
"Amazon rapidly corrected the issue and shipped an entire new hitch with wiring harness. I simply held the nuts in a small pair of vice grips until the threads were started, then tightened them with 3/4 inch wrenches."
"Installation: I read the other reviews from guys who put this on without removing the bumper and I did give that a shot. Removing the factory bumper takes only a few minutes and makes the installation of the hitch super easy. It is light, only weighs a few pounds it is just moulded plastic.Once the bumper is removed, this is an easy job. You will pull the slop out when you tighten the bolts, but I would have made the gap exactly the size of the cross member. I just don't like all the slop and play that you have to pull out by torquing down the bolts and actually bending the hitch to fit."
"Then bolting the receiver to the frame is a snap, and running the wiring loom is a breeze. It's hard to tell from the images, but there are white push connectors along the loom of the wiring harness that push into factory-drilled holes along the frame to keep the wiring from hanging down and getting damaged."
Best Towing Hitch Rail Kits

"Sad thing is the little 6.0 in the truck just ain't got enough umph once I hooked up to a 24ft 4600lb gooseneck 14k trailer and 7000lb Bobcat Skid Steer Loader on it."
"Prior to installation I noticed that the box was slightly damaged. I noticed that I only recieved 3 of the 4 brackets needed for installation, so I waited till Monday morning and called the customer service number that is located on the instructions. A few days later I recieved a box from Fedex and opened it up and to my surprise they sent me all 4 of the brackets so now I have some extras."
"The only issue with the kit was that the instructions were unclear being a versatile kit there is some forgiveness for that."
"In the end I chose to weld them to the frame so the factory holes would line up with the rails."
"this is a very goog product and the price is right."
"Very good quality, fast service."
"We bought this for our 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 4X4."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I recently purchased 2 of these for use with my Xterra and I am very happy with them. That being said buying 2 of the Fit System 3891 towing mirrors is still less then just one of the Milenco mirrors. Both have a great view and are large enough to see whats going on behind you. Vibration: Fit Systems wins."
"Mirrors fit my Xterra perfectly after some adjustment."
"With the exception of the issues that arose with my jeep, these mirrors will fit a lot of vehicles and you probably won't be towing what i was."
"The adjustability seems very broad so it will likely fit a large number of styles as long as there's not too much taper to the mirror."
"* The first is the mirror is very tight in the socket and takes a lot of force to adjust the pitch and angle. While DW as in the driver’s seat I had to use one had on the Kia’s mirror on the other on the Fit mirror in order to adjust."
"These are nice mirrors but didn't fit well on my Ford Explorer mirrors which are rectangular in shape and have a contour on the end closest to the vehicle."
"These clip-ons fit great and required very little adjustment once strapped on to the factory mirror."
"This might work if your mirrors are flat on the back side."

"I used the padlock as the lock for my trailer door, because I keep my trailer in my hot AF garage."
"This fits a 2 5/8 ball, but it did not fit my trailer because the hitch was wider than the Pins were apart. I park the trailer on a storage lot so my goal is really just to make sure that mine is harder to take than the next guys."
"However, It loses two stars for me due to the hitch release lock no longer working for me. Therefore, I turned to another hitch lock method."
"Like the fact you secure your trailer on the truck when parked at hotel, and double lock trailer when parked."
"The receiver pin and lock fit my hitch with no problem as well."
"Great for anyone who keeps a trailer around, all keys are the same for all the locks and this package works perfectly for my jon boat trailer and truck."
"The whole idea of a "fake" anti-theft device ought to be presented more straightforwardly, as in "Reese Fake Trailer Lock". Tonight, after hearing from a fellow vendor that he'd found a broken trailer lock in the parking lot, I moved my trailer to a more secure lot rather than risk my trailer to the "safety" of this device. I'm here on Amazon looking for a serious trailer lock and was surprised to find this one listed. The first one quit working when the lock fell off. The teeth/cog mechanism (only on one of the two shafts that slide into the yellow ball & flange) quit working and I could simply pull the "lock" on and off."

"5 stars because of fast shipping, quality looking design, ease of installment, and the extras it comes with (although I only used the hose, zip ties and the foam protector pads)."
"it has consistently reduced my trans temp from 200* to 170*-180* on those humid 100* Louisiana days."
"I like the plate design which allows for mounting using the plastic straps through the radiator or if you want to build a mounting bracket there are holds and supplied bolts to do that. The 4 feet of transmission hose that comes with the cooler was enough for me but that is mostly due to the way I mounted it."
"Used this to bypass the in radiator tranny cooler in my 3rd Gen 4runner."
"I installed it then had my tranny flushed for good measure before a long trip hauling a heavy trailer- the transmission shop said this was the one they recommend installing, so I take that as a good recommendation."
"This unit fit perfectly on my 65 Ranchero."
"My AW4 in my XJ seems much happier and shifts much smoother now that it's not overheating from running oversized tires."
