Love the convenience of power running boards but need some extra durability? Then consider AMP Research PowerStep Xtreme Running Boards, which take everything you love about AMP's original PowerStep and make it bigger, better, and more reliable!
AMP Research PowerStep Xtreme Running Boards are the toughest power running boards on the market. Featuring an entirely cast aluminum construction, save for the stainless steel hinge pins, these running boards can withstand extreme weather conditions and abuse. All aluminum components are anodized before applying a military-grade PTFE coating, guarding the underlying aluminum against corrosion.
These running boards feature an extra-wide, non-slip, 6-inch wide step surface for maximum traction. AMP Research even includes bright, LED convenience lights that illuminate when the steps deploy, preventing slips and injuries from lack of visibility. As an upgrade, AMP Research fits each Powerstep Xtreme Running Board with a dual-motor setup, providing additional power to deploy and retract the oversized, cab-length running boards.
AMP Research PowerStep Xtreme Running Boards are vehicle-specific, ensuring a flawless fit and finish. Where applicable, newer models utilize a simple plug-and-play harness that connects directly to your vehicle's OBDII port, significantly simplifying installation.
PowerStep Xtreme Running Boards come backed by the confidence of AMP Research's 5-year limited warranty. For order assistance or product inquiries, contact the experts!
