The original power retractable running boards since 2002—now with complete smartphone control. The AMP Research® PowerStep™ Smart Series takes the proven PowerStep platform and adds wireless app integration, putting manual override directly in your pocket. Deploy or retract the electric running boards on demand from your iOS or Android device—whether you're loading cargo, washing the truck, or want the steps locked retracted on the trail. The same automatic door-triggered operation the PowerStep has always delivered, with an added layer of control for every situation.Constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum with an advanced powder coat finish and stainless steel hinge pins at every pivot point. Each power running board supports up to 300 lbs. per door and delivers a 6-inch-wide slip-resistant step surface for stable footing in all conditions. Integrated LED lighting illuminates the step for confident entry in low-light situations. When retracted, the boards disappear under the truck or SUV’s rocker panels—clean lines, uncompromised ground clearance, no hanging hardware. AMP Research's patented plug-n-play wiring connects directly to your vehicle with no complicated splicing or magnet alignment issues. The smartphone app replaces the physical override switch entirely, giving you full manual control without additional hardware. Vehicle-specific fitment ensures a factory-style finish on every application. Professional installation recommended. Includes all hardware, bracketry, wiring, and vehicle-specific instructions. Drilling required on select applications. Backed by a 5-year limited warranty.

    • Awesome Product - BOTH functional and nice looking
Style: PowerStep Plug-N-Play
The kit came well packaged - no damage or missing parts. Installation took me well over 3 hours, but I was picky and had a terrible set-up for doing the installation - outside, on my back, under the truck. And I'm very picky about how the cables were routed, and how the wires ran up to the connector under the dash. Solid product, no give when you step on the board. Worked perfectly. LED's look great. Wiring harness was just the right length for all connections. Had been considering installing an override switch in the cab to 'force' the boards to stay extended for snow clearing, washing, etc., but the latest design has a 'feature' whereby you can simply rest your foot on the board when you close the door, and the board will sense this and remain extended! While this is a safety feature, it also means there's no need to rig an override switch! Very, very pleased with the product. For the Silverado, the retracted boards conveniently cover the LED's, keeping them from getting 'coated' in road debris (they are only exposed when the boards are extended, and you're probably not driving down a wet, snowy road at that point! But I have to say, the installation instructions were very weak, and made installation a challenge. There was at least one typo on one of the nut reference numbers too, but anyone attempting their own installation would easily work around that. First 'real' complaint - while the instructions start off having you install the motor on the lift arm, there's NO HINT at what position the lift arm should be locked in to (fully extended, fully retracted, in the middle, etc.) when you engage the motor gear teeth with the lift arm teeth. I guessed at fully extended, which is probably the best option, but on my truck (31.6" wheels, no lift kit) that meant that after mounting the boards to the lift arm and idler arm, that I could barely get by head under the board to see and work under the truck (running harness, tying off cable). Also, motor install for me left the arm slightly offset from actual 'bottom', which made squaring up the board during install difficult since the idler arm WAS at the bottom. Note, had I first engaged the motor with the lift arm fully retracted, I would have had more space to work, but probably wouldn't have been able to mount the boards to the lift arms, nor mount the LED's. Complaint #2 - for the double cab, you have to cut 7" off each board. Not bad with a Sawzall or bandsaw, but I opted for a hacksaw to get a good cut without having to clamp the boards down. No instructions for how to remove the board end cap to cut it, or to reinstall it. One has to be careful here, it's easy to turn the compression fitting inside the cap the wrong way, and/or overtighten the fitting when re-installing the cap. Worked out okay, but it was a pain. The whole time I was thinking how much easier it would have been for AMP Research to cut the boards to the right length, coat the ends (as they already do), and stock a second SKU for the double cab. I understand SKU control and proliferation, but this would have been a most appreciated thing. For the two loose wires that need to be run through the floor and up to the connector under the dash, I opted to carefully drill through the rubber brake line grommet in the floor. I saw this on YouTube and it worked well. The rubber closed in tightly around the wires. I used an ODB splitter I purchased, which had a nice right angle connection to the dash connector. Pretty much completely hides the connection from view in the cab. Final complaint is the connection to the battery in the SIlverado. Following instructions on where to mount the control module, and living with the lengths of the two supply wires that go to the battery, all but assures me that the zip ties and some of the connections will have to be removed when it's time to replace the battery. More of a SIlverado design flaw in my opinion, but it'll make replacing the battery more difficult, and something I'll do, rather than having a mechanic mess with. I will probably eventually move the control module to a different location that is NOT in the way of battery removal, and extend the supply wires and connect them up differently. Personal preference - there's nothing wrong with the way AMP Research instructions cover this. All in all, definitely something anyone mechanically minded can do themselves, and you'll absolutely love the way the boards disappear under the truck, and the first time it's dark out and the LED's light up the steps. And like another reviewer stated, the steps are nice and low for shorter people when extended - something very difficult to do with fixed boards. Very pleased customer! ... show more

    • The best upgrade I have bought for my truck to date.
Style: PowerStep Plug-N-Play

Review Image by American Infidel American Infidel
May be the coolest and most functional upgrade to my truck yet. Steps actuate quickly, led's super bright. Whole package is high quality and well made. Well worth the price tag in my opinion. Wiring harness is perfect length and is truly plug and play. The difficulty in the installation was the alignment of some of the bolt holes on the truck, not the step components. Found the best way to install is leave everything loose, and when you attach steps to actuators the steps being perfectly straight lines up everything and squares it all to the truck.Then you just tighten all your fasteners. It took me 4 hours, by myself in a garage to install. But I was very meticulous with the routing of the wiring, etc. On the passenger side, there is not a lot of options for zip tying the harness up, so invest in a few cushion clamps and self tapping screws. VERY clean install. Very quiet motors as well. Whole package only added 58 pounds to the truck. When steps are stowed, unless you know what to look for, they are virtually invisible which is what I wanted. If you like the clean lines of your truck and do not want the normal bulky steps/running boards, then these are for you. Time will tell if these stand up to the environment, but for now they are worth every penny.I will update this review after some months on the road. ****UPDATE**** After only 3 days, the price of these steps dropped $135 from what I paid. After contacting customer service, and even though it was against normal policy but due to the difficulty of removing and returning, they refunded me the difference in price. Amazon comes through again. ... show more

    • BEST UPGRADE YOU WILL EVER DO HANDS DOWN!!!!!
Style: PowerStep Plug-N-Play
Title says it all.steps are great, perfect height, work awesome. don't hesitate to buy.......i know...... they are pricey ....but well worth it.adds classy look to any vehicle and the wife even loves them, easier for her to get in and out of my truck...I live in the northeast and added a inline switch at the battery connection for those deep snowy days, now I can shut the system off so I don't damage them.......(just me over thinking things).I ordered the plug n play version and it really is plug n play.the added stainless steel trim strip that is sold separately adds a nice touch, very easy to slip trim on before you mount the running board, but wear gloves (very sharp).running boards are very strong and sturdy..hope I was able to help someone looking to purchase.....ps.. put electrical grease on all outside electrical plugs.. ... show more

    • Great running boards and only type I would use from now on.
Style: PowerStep Plug-N-Play
For the price I got these compared to other site listings(even other Amazon vendors), I was very happy. I was going to buy one anyways, but finding it for a great prices made it even better. I didn't have one installed by the dealership as all the ones I saw looked either too bulky or stuck too far out. And for the price, pay a little more and have one that catches peoples eyes and also, not have to worry about something sticking out the side by your door when not in use. Plus, my wife and my little one was having trouble getting in without a step, haha! I installed this on my 2017 Silverado 1500 DC. Between the updated instructions and the instructions straight from AMP website, this was easy to install. I think I could have installed it in less time, but I was being neat about it and tucking/routing etc as neat as possible. These steps feel very sturdy and feels like it will last. The modification I had to do was to cut it smaller to fit on a DC, a miter saw or table saw with the proper blade makes quick work of that, or just use a hack-saw and build up your arms, haha. I do think the LED lights could probably be a little brighter or whiters(looks a little blue-ish). I'll probably add some LED strips later on. ... show more
