Overview:

The AMP Research PowerStep XL PowerStep is an advanced automatic electric-powered running board specifically engineered for lifted Ram trucks. Designed to integrate seamlessly into a custom rocker rail, this running board offers a sleek, factory-like appearance while providing a stepping surface that is 3 inches lower than the original PowerStep. This additional drop significantly improves ease of entry and exit, making it ideal for trucks with lifted suspensions.

It automatically extends when the door opens and retracts when closed, offering convenience and protection from road debris.
