What hardware do I need to bolt this to my hitch?

Bolts, washers, and locking fasteners aren't included — you'll need hardware to match your receiver tube diameter and length. Most 2-inch receivers use 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch bolts; check your hitch specs before ordering fasteners.

Will the chrome scratch or chip if I use this for recovery pulls?

Chrome is hard but can scuff or chip under heavy impact. If you're planning serious towing loads through rough terrain, wrap the step with a towel or protective covering during recovery work to preserve the finish.

Does this work on a single-hitch or double-hitch receiver?

This is a 2-inch receiver step — it fits any 2-inch receiver tube, whether your setup is single or stacked. Verify your receiver size before purchase; 2.5-inch and larger tubes require different adapters or steps.
