AMP Research PowerStep, BedStep & BedXtender Parts

Shop AMP Research powered running boards, BedStep cargo-access steps, BedXtender truck-bed extenders, and application-specific service parts by exact manufacturer part number. Match the complete year, make, model, body, cab, wheelbase, bed, bumper, wiring method, and every application note before ordering.

AMP Research PowerStep Running Boards

PowerStep systems deploy when a door opens and retract after the doors close. Standard PowerStep, lower-deploying PowerStep XL, dual-motor PowerStep Xtreme, SmartSeries, and illuminated PowerStep Vision kits use application-specific brackets, motors, controllers, wiring, lighting, and vehicle integration.

BedStep and BedStep2 Cargo Access

BedStep products provide a retractable stepping surface near the rear bumper or side of the truck bed. Confirm the exact mounting location, bed and bumper configuration, hitch, exhaust, body style, and vehicle application before ordering.

BedXtender HD Truck-Bed Extenders

BedXtender products help organize cargo and can add usable containment with the tailgate open when correctly configured. Complete extenders, brackets, latches, and mounting kits are separate product types, so verify bed width, bed style, tonneau-cover clearance, bracket type, and included parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the correct AMP Research PowerStep kit?
Match the exact year, make, model, cab, body, wheelbase, engine where noted, and every manufacturer application restriction. Similar trucks can use different brackets, wiring, controllers, or step lengths.

What is the difference between PowerStep, PowerStep XL, and PowerStep Xtreme?
PowerStep is the standard automatic powered step. PowerStep XL provides a lower stepping position for lifted vehicles. PowerStep Xtreme uses a dual-motor design for demanding dirt, snow, and ice exposure. Fitment remains part-number specific.

Does every PowerStep kit use plug-and-play wiring?
No. Only kits expressly identified as Plug-N-Play use that connection strategy. Verify the wiring method, controller, harness, and vehicle integration for the exact part number.

Is a BedXtender listing always a complete extender?
No. Some listings are complete extenders, while others are brackets, latches, or mounting kits. Check the exact title, manufacturer part number, and included-parts section before ordering.

What should be checked after installation?
Verify fastener torque, complete step or extender travel, lighting, wiring and grounds, safe clearance, stable footing, and correct operation through repeated cycles.
