Overview:

The AMP Research Black PowerStep is an innovative, automatic running board designed to enhance accessibility and style for Dodge Ram trucks from 2009 through 2019. Engineered to deploy instantly when a door opens and retract seamlessly when closed, this electric-powered step eliminates the challenge of climbing into your truck, making entry and exit effortless. Ideal for truck owners seeking convenience without compromising ground clearance or vehicle aesthetics, the PowerStep combines functionality with a sleek, low-profile design that complements the rugged look of your Ram.

Built to withstand all weather conditions and daily use, the PowerStep offers a reliable, maintenance-free solution that improves safety and convenience for drivers and passengers alike. Its automatic operation ensures the step is only visible when needed, preserving the truck’s aerodynamics and off-road capability.

• Automatic electric deployment triggered by door opening for hands-free operation
• Retracts completely under the truck for improved ground clearance and aerodynamics
• Constructed from high-strength, die-cast aluminum alloy with anodized and PTFE-coated military-spec finish for superior corrosion resistance

Construction & Design:

The PowerStep is engineered with premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship to ensure lasting performance. Its core components are made from die-cast aluminum alloy, chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to rust and corrosion. The anodized and PTFE-coated military-spec finish further protects the running board from harsh environmental elements, including road salt, mud, and moisture.

Self-lubricating bushings eliminate the need for regular maintenance, allowing the step to operate smoothly year-round without binding or squeaking. Stainless steel pivot pins add rigidity and stability, ensuring the step remains solid under heavy loads. The integrated LED lighting is seamlessly incorporated into the low-profile design, providing subtle illumination without detracting from the truck’s appearance.

Installation & Fitment:

Designed specifically for Dodge Ram 1500 (2009–2010), Ram 2500 (2010), Ram 3500 (2010), and Ram 1500/2500/3500 models from 2011 to 2019, the PowerStep requires drilling for installation. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper fitment and electrical connections. Once installed, the system integrates with the truck’s door sensors to automatically deploy and retract the running board with each door operation.
