The Buyers Products Company Breakaway Truck Step mounts to a step bumper and is designed to pivot forward or backwards to prevent damage if impacted. This easy-to-install step folds up for transport, which is handy with low bumpers where ground clearance is tight. This breakaway step is constructed with a cast brass mounting bracket and stainless steel pivot shafts, springs, and fasteners for easy assembly and long lasting use. Its galvanized steel grips provide extra traction for slip protection.
