AMP Research

AMP Research has earned a strong reputation in the truck accessory market by developing innovative, high-quality products that improve vehicle accessibility, functionality, and everyday convenience. Best known for its PowerStep™ automatic retractable running boards, AMP Research combines advanced engineering with durable construction to create accessories designed specifically for trucks and SUVs. The PowerStep automatically deploys when the vehicle door opens and retracts when the door closes, providing a convenient, slip-resistant step while maintaining ground clearance and a clean factory-style appearance when stowed. AMP Research offers several PowerStep configurations, including the standard PowerStep, PowerStep XL for lifted trucks, PowerStep Xtreme for demanding off-road applications, and additional systems designed around specific vehicle fitments and installation requirements. Beyond running boards, the brand also produces BedStep® and BedStep2® retractable bed access steps, as well as BedXTender™ cargo management products that make loading, unloading, and using the truck bed more convenient. With vehicle-specific engineering, rugged materials, weather-resistant construction, and a focus on precise fitment and dependable operation, AMP Research provides truck owners with practical upgrades that enhance both the appearance and functionality of their vehicles.
