WeatherTech’s BumpStep family of products offers a hitch-mounted solution to protect against distracted, careless drivers – those who may ding, dent or scratch your bumper and leave you with costly damage and wasted time on repairs.
BumpStep
The Billet BumpStep 12” and 24” (Billet BumpStep XL) are handmade in limited quantities in Bolingbrook, IL, by American machinists on American-made CNC machines. Both widths of the Billet BumpStep provide unrivaled durability and quality. This USA-made bumper protector is rock-solid while still being lightweight enough for easy installation.
Billet BumpStep is crafted from the finest materials. Both the post and step are machined for a precision fit and support USA-made high-quality 304 stainless-steel hardware. BumpStep’s billet aluminum construction is hard anodized for corrosion resistance and scratch protection. The result is an extremely high-quality bumper defender that helps ensure peace of mind for drivers.
As a secondary benefit, and as the name implies, Billet BumpStep doubles as a step, helping you reach your vehicle's roof to wash it, brush off snow, or access a roof rack, bike or kayak.
For standard SUVs and trucks, choose 12” Billet BumpStep, and for larger vehicles, choose Billet BumpStep XL to protect a greater portion of the vehicle’s bumper.
Billet BumpStep Hardware: Theft-Deterrent Hardware
- Stainless-steel theft-deterrent 1/2" Allen Key bolt to help prevent theft of your Billet BumpStep.
- Stainless nut, flat washer and lock washer to further resist rust/corrosion even in the worst of environments
BumpStep
Insert the BumpStep into the 2" receiver hitch on your vehicle at the most desirable position. Then install the hardware and securely tighten the bolt. The secure mounting design holds the BumpStep firmly inside the receiver to reduce flexing and movement. There are four possible mounting positions to allow for proper installation depth on virtually all receivers.
Note: If your BumpStep has been involved in an impact or accident it is important to have it inspected for cracks or fractures prior to placing any weight or loads upon it. Please send it to WeatherTech, BumpStep Inspection, 1 MacNeil Court, Bolingbrook, IL 60440 and we will be happy to inspect it and advise you if it needs to be replaced.
