Description:
Every truck, Jeep®, or SUV can benefit from a set of running boards. However, only some consumers enjoy the aesthetics. For those who prefer clean, streamlined looks, AMP Research® offers its patented PowerStep™. These heavy-duty, power retractable running boards offer the best of both worlds, deploying when needed and retracting under the body when not in use to preserve looks and ground clearance.
As the pinnacle of quality, AMP Research utilizes only the finest materials in its PowerStep line. Die-cast aluminum boards offer exceptional strength at a low weight, while stainless steel hinge pins and hardware deliver unmatched durability and corrosion resistance. The step's surface is treated with a military-grade PTFE coating, guarding the underlying alloy against oxidation and abrasions—the black finish also provides a sleek, discreet appearance.
AMP Research PowerStep running boards make entering and exiting even the tallest vehicles a breeze. Featuring extra-wide, 6-inch, non-slip step tread, AMP PowerSteps promote traction in even the worst weather conditions. The integrated low-profile LED courtesy lights illuminate the step surface and surrounding area to ease entry in low-visibility conditions. As a bonus, PowerStep drops far lower than traditional fixed-position running boards, giving passengers a much-needed boost.
To simplify the installation process, each set of PowerStep running boards includes a vehicle-specific mounting kit, thorough instructions, and—if applicable—a plug-n-play OBD II module. Each mounting kit contains all necessary mounting brackets, hardware, wiring accessories, and instructions.

Order Notes:
Cleaning your PowerStep
In adverse conditions, debris such as mud, dirt, and salt may become trapped in the running board mechanism, possibly leading to unwanted noise, or binding.
Prepare for cleaning
Manually set the running boards to deploy: The running boards can be manually set in the deployed position by opening the door, and then place your foot on the step. Leave firm pressure with your foot on the step while you close the door. This will leave your steps in the deployed position.
How to maintain your steps:
Using a pressure washer to clean the front and rear linkages which are all 4 hinge points for your PowerSteps. Avoid spraying the motors directly.
After washing, apply silicone spray (dry Film lubricant) only, to all 4 linkage arms and all pivot pins, some of these pins will be located up high on the linkage arm as well. Then cycle the door to work the lubrication in to the hinge points.
Do not apply silicone, wax, or protectants like Armor All® to the running board. Do not lubricate with any greases, oils, WD-40, or penetrants.
This cleaning should be done periodically, or when debris such as mud, dirt or salt becomes trapped in the running board mechanism.
