If you have a tall truck, SUV or van and are shopping for a side step or running board, drop by Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security in Anchorage and ask about the AMP Research PowerSteps. These motorized steps offer the convenience and safety benefits of a running board for getting in and out of your vehicle, then fold up tight against the rocker panel as you drive.
Truck Step Convenience and Style
PowerStep running boards mount directly to the chassis of your vehicle to provide a solid platform. The steps are constructed from a durable 6063 marine-grade aluminum extrusion that’s powder-coated with a corrosion- and wear-resistant PTFE finish. The motor and idler linkage assemblies are cast from an aluminum alloy and include precision-machined stainless steel pivot pins for excellent longevity and stability. AMP Research includes LED illumination on all models of PowerSteps to help you see around the product in the dark.
How Do AMP Research PowerStep Truck Steps Work?
When you drive, the step platform is tucked up tight against the rocker panel of your pickup truck, van or SUV. This retracted location offers good ground clearance and minimal aerodynamic drag compared to a fixed step or board. As soon as you open a door, the steps motorize down into place without the need for you to press any buttons. Once the last door is closed, the steps retract automatically after 3 seconds. Again, you don’t have to press any buttons — it’s all automatic.
PowerStep Options for Every Application
AMP Research offers the PowerSteps in three models to suit your vehicle and needs. The classic PowerStep features a single high-torque motor and extends 6 to 7 inches below the pinch weld on the bottom of the cab. This height is more than twice the distance offered by most other fixed steps and boards. The PowerStep XL is an extended design that’s optimized for extreme duty and lifted truck applications. The XL series adds an additional 3 inches to the extension length. For those who need the most-durable step available, the PowerStep Extreme is the right choice. These steps include dual motors to help you power through mud, ice and snow that may build up on the system while you’re driving. Best of all, all models are backed by a comprehensive, hassle-free, five-year, 60,000-mile warranty to the original owner.
