Reliable Rear Vehicle Access for Compatible 50mm Hitch Systems

Whether you're replacing a worn rear step or improving access to the back of a work vehicle, selecting the right hitch-mounted rear step starts with confirming compatibility. The Champion Universal Rear Step 50mm URS-50 is designed for vehicles fitted with a compatible 50mm hitch receiver, making it easier to access the rear of the vehicle while helping protect the rear bar area during everyday use.

Champion manufactures the URS-50 from polished stainless steel with a durable non-slip stepping surface, three location holes for adjustment, a stabiliser & a supplied fitting pin. Champion also advises the rear step can be installed in approximately one minute & swapped with a towbar in seconds when the hitch is required for another compatible accessory.

Instead of relying on estimated vehicle fitment, Champion publishes the dimensions & technical information required to help buyers assess compatibility before purchasing. Industrial Shed presents this information in a practical format so you can confidently compare measurements with your existing setup.

Champion URS-50 At a Glance

The table above highlights the key technical information buyers typically review before ordering. Comparing these documented measurements with your vehicle's hitch receiver provides the simplest way to determine whether the Champion URS-50 suits your intended application.

Understanding Champion Universal Rear Steps

A hitch-mounted rear step provides a convenient stepping point when accessing the tray, canopy or rear cargo area of a compatible vehicle. Rather than permanently modifying the vehicle, the Champion URS-50 fits into a compatible 50mm hitch receiver & can be removed when another compatible hitch accessory is required.

Champion focuses on providing documented product dimensions rather than broad vehicle compatibility claims. This allows buyers to verify measurements using their own vehicle instead of relying on assumptions.

If you're servicing or upgrading your vehicle at the same time, our Automotive & Mechanical collection includes workshop equipment suited to ongoing maintenance, repairs & fleet servicing.

Why Buyers Choose the Champion URS-50

Every specification published by Champion helps buyers make a more informed purchasing decision.

The 50mm × 50mm fitting size allows you to verify compatibility with your existing hitch receiver before ordering, while the 910mm overall length helps determine whether adequate clearance is available behind the vehicle.

Champion also specifies a 76mm diameter, polished stainless steel construction & a durable non-slip stepping surface. Together with the supplied stabiliser, fitting pin & three location holes, these documented features provide a clear understanding of what is included with the product.

Reviewing these details before purchasing can help minimise uncertainty & reduce the likelihood of ordering equipment that doesn't suit your application.

Before installing any hitch-mounted accessory, our Vehicle Inspection collection includes practical tools that can assist with general inspection tasks around the rear of the vehicle.

How to Compare Rear Steps Before Buying

Choosing the correct rear step isn't simply about appearance. The most reliable approach is to compare the published measurements with your existing hitch receiver & available installation space.

Before ordering, confirm:

► Your vehicle has a compatible 50mm hitch.
► The hitch receiver matches the published 50mm × 50mm fitting size.
► The available clearance accommodates the 910mm overall length.
► The supplied stabiliser & fitting pin suit your installation requirements.
► There is adequate space around the hitch receiver for installation & removal.

Spending a few minutes checking these measurements before purchasing can make selecting the right product much more straightforward.

If your installation forms part of a broader vehicle service, our Hand Tools For Auto Repair collection includes workshop tools commonly used during routine maintenance.

Industrial Shed Buying Advice

At Industrial Shed, we believe accurate product information should help customers make confident purchasing decisions—not create unnecessary uncertainty.

If you need additional guidance, reviewing Champion's official product information alongside your own vehicle measurements can help answer many common compatibility questions before ordering.

Making an Informed Choice

Comparing documented product information before purchasing is one of the simplest ways to select equipment with confidence.

Rather than relying on vehicle descriptions alone, review the hitch size, fitting dimensions, overall length & supplied components against your existing setup. Taking a few minutes to verify these measurements can help reduce unnecessary returns while ensuring the product better matches your intended application.

If you're responsible for maintaining multiple vehicles or managing a workshop fleet, recording key equipment dimensions can also simplify future purchasing decisions & replacement planning.
