    Features

    • PowerStep Running Boards produced by AMP Research are original factory equipment on some vehicles
    • Running boards extend outward when doors are opened, then retract flush underneath the vehicle when doors are closed
    • Ideal for off-roading or other use where traditional fixed-in-place running boards may become damaged due to ground clearance issues
    • Running boards are triggered automatically when any door on the corresponding side is opened or closed
    • Sealed power motors mount directly onto the folding linkage assemblies with ease
    • Running boards extend and retract in approximately one second
    • Safe for young children because pinch protection sensors will reverse direction of the boards if resistance is detected
    • Each side is rated to support 300 pounds
    • Comes with a controller module which mounts under hood and wires directly to your battery
    • Bushings are sealed for protection against grit and the elements, and require no lubrication
    • Die cast aluminum construction and stainless steel pivot pins ensure a lifetime of freedom from corrosion
    • Running board surfaces feature a powder coated finish that effectively resists scratches, chips, and discoloration
    • Warranty: 5-years / 60,000 miles
    • Manufactured in the United States

    Add the ultimate touch of luxury to your pickup truck or sport utility vehicle with stylish, power-operated running boards that extend outward when you need them, then retract neatly out of sight underneath your vehicle when you don't. AMP Research has engineered and built all fixed and moving PowerStep components to very high standards – so much so that Ford and General Motors offer these very running boards as an OEM factory option on their own vehicles. They are perfect for 4x4 owners who need maximum ground clearance during off-roading and for those who prefer not to alter the original lines of their vehicle with fixed running boards. Whatever the length of your truck's cab, AMP Research offers running boards sized to fit your make and model that achieve an OEM-quality fit.

    Mounting brackets with a pivoting design fit easily onto vehicle body mount bolts or existing frame holes. A centralized control module is placed under hood for easy power connection to your vehicle's battery and comes complete with heavy grade wiring that runs through door ajar sensors, then through sill plates after drilling. Once underneath the vehicle, the wiring connects easily to power motors that mount directly onto bracket ends and to LED lights that secure to the vehicle frame with the use of double-sided tape. To ensure moving parts do not become compromised by mud and grit buildup, motors and pivot points are sealed with internal lubrication – making them virtually maintenance-free. Running boards on each side can support up to 300 pounds and textured surfaces give maximum grip, even when covered in mud, ice, snow, or rain.

    AMP Research also offers the Extension Arm Kit with four extension pieces that mount between the standard PowerStep mounting brackets and the running boards to create a step height that's two inches closer to the ground. The extension pieces fold out of the way when the boards retract, maintaining a side profile that is flush to the vehicle while providing added convenience for lifted trucks and passengers with difficulties climbing larger steps.

    For those that wish to add an elegant touch of brightwork to their running boards, AMP Research offers Stainless Steel Trim Strips in multiple lengths that slide easily onto the front edge of newer style running boards. For those that have older AMP Research running boards of a different shape that is not compatible with these trim strips, the Complete Stainless Steel Trim Upgrade Kit gives you new-style replacement running boards that bolt on easily to existing arm brackets. Replacement LED lights are also available in the event any on your vehicle should become damaged. AMP Research builds all components in the United States and backs them with a 5-year/60,000-mile warranty against failure due to manufacturing defects.

    Definitely recommend
    I've got a lifted 2025 Tahoe and these steps look and work great on it. My girlfriend used to struggle climbing in but now it's a breeze. They deploy without any issues and feel robust. Wiring was a bit of a hassle but once done no complaints.

    No More Complaints from the Wife
    My truck's lifted and my wife used to hate getting in. No complaints now, these steps saved me from hearing about it every time we went somewhere! Installing them took me a while, not exactly beginner friendly, but the instructions were clear enough to follow.

    Smooth Access Upgrade
    This step is wide and makes it easy to get in and out of the Sprinter even with work boots. It's long enough to cover both the front and sliding doors. It doesn't stick out, so no worries about hitting anything. The deployment is smooth.

    Worth Every Penny
    These steps are awesome. I drive a 2003 Dodge Ram and getting in was a chore after lifting it. Problem solved now. I didn't think I'd care about the lights but they're actually really helpful at night. The steps are pricey but honestly they're worth it for the convenience.

    Great
    My wife and kids had trouble climbing into our Transit. This running board solved that problem. It's wide enough for stability and retracts smoothly when the door closes. Everyone's happy now. I had a pro handle the installation.

    Great for My Work Truck
    Installed these on my 2016 sierra 3500 and honestly they're totally worth the price for how much easier they make access. The install was a bit tricky but once it was done everything worked like a charm. The width is perfect for stability, the motorized step is smooth.

    Good
    Got these steps on in no time. Installation instructions were clear. They look so good! Pop out fast when the door opens. The surface has enough traction, mud, rain, no slip.

    2018 TRD Pro 4Runner
    Wanted these even before I bought the 4Runner. I off-road the truck and wanted running boards that were out of the way when not in use. The TRD Pro is a bit higher than all the other models, and my wife and mother in law had difficulty getting in. These are the perfect choice. Installation instructions are very good. I used extra care routing the wiring down the firewall to ensure no heat related problems. Everything was where they said it would be. When routing the wires through the floor, I used an awl to poke small holes in the rubber plug, thus eliminating the need for sealant. The only thing I did differently was to mount the LED lights behind the rockers near the board hinges as my doors have puddle lights and this placement spreads the lighting, protects the lights better and eliminates drilling holes. The last modification was to fill the groove in the surface of the boards with black silicone sealant to keep that slot from filling with dirt. The AMP boards operate faster than the optional boards on the Limited model, which you can't buy from Toyota in the aftermarket. This is the best looking, most effective way to have running boards. On top of everything else, they come down further than any static board and of course are more out of the way when retracted. You can hardly notice them when up. I am extremely happy with my purchase, even thought they are very expensive. They are very well engineered and built. This from a thirty year auto technician.

    Dodge 2500 Mega Cab 4x4 2007
    I purchased these for my 07 Dodge 2500 mega cab. These steps are worth the money. They work great. Make it a lot easier to get in an out. Best part they tuck away and can't even see them on the truck. Installation was easy. Just takes time if you're doing them by yourself. I had them in in about 4 hours. Was just taking my time to not overlook anything. Follow the provided instructions and shouldn't have any problems. Everything is well made, and wiring was a breeze. Highly, highly recommend them to anyone if you have the money to invest in these steps. You won't be disappointed.
