The Automatic Step Solution for the Modern F-Series EV & Hybrid Fleet.
Step Into the Future of Truck AccessGetting into your truck shouldn't feel like climbing Mount Everest. The AMP Research PowerStep is the premium, electric-powered running board that instantly extends when you open your door, providing a natural step height for you and your passengers.
When the doors close, the steps retract safely out of sight, preserving your F-150's ground clearance, aerodynamics, and sleek appearance. This specific model is precision-engineered to accommodate the unique underbody requirements of the F-150 Lightning (EV) and Powerboost (Hybrid) models, ensuring no interference with battery packs or hybrid components.
The Problem & The Solution:The Pain: High-clearance modern trucks are difficult for families to enter. Traditional fixed boards create wind drag (reducing EV range) and look bulky on the Lightning's clean lines.
The AMP Solution: An automatic, hidden step that deploys only when needed, maintaining your Ford's efficiency and aerodynamic profile.
Key Features: Built for the Ford F-Series
Specially designed to fit the 2021-2025 F-150 frames, including the Lightning EV and Powerboost Hybrid battery configurations.
Connects directly to the OBD-II port. No complex wire splicing or tapping into factory door wires required.
High-strength, die-cast aluminum alloy components support up to 600 lbs on each side for legendary reliability.
Integrated LED lights illuminate the boards and the ground when doors are open, ensuring safe entry in total darkness.
Smart sensors automatically stop the step if an obstruction is detected, protecting your passengers and pets.
The durable black textured finish provides a non-slip surface and superior corrosion resistance in all weather.
Over-Engineered for Modern EfficiencyAMP Research doesn't cut corners. The PowerStep is engineered with aircraft-grade aluminum and features stainless steel pivot pins that are maintenance-free. By retracting against the rocker panel, you improve the aerodynamic efficiency of your truck—crucial for maximizing the range of your F-150 Lightning.
600 lbs Weight Capacity Plug-N-Play Install Style LED Lights Included 5 Years Warranty
"I was worried about running boards interfering with the battery on my F-150 Lightning, but these fit perfectly. The Plug-N-Play install was a game changer—no wire tapping at all. They tuck away so tightly you can't even tell they are there, and my family loves how low they drop for easy access."
- Greg S., F-150 Lightning Owner Aerodynamic AdvantageOptimize Your Range: For EV (Lightning) and Hybrid (Powerboost) owners, the PowerStep helps maintain original EPA range estimates by staying out of the wind stream while driving, unlike traditional fixed boards.

Yes. This specific part is designed with hardware and linkages that avoid interference with the Lightning's underbody battery pack and the Powerboost Hybrid's components.
No, there are still wires to run, but "Plug-N-Play" refers to the signal connection. Instead of splicing into the truck's delicate computer wires, it uses a harness that plugs directly into your OBD-II port under the dash.
The PowerStep is rated for 600 lbs on each side, making it robust enough for any user or even carrying gear into the truck.
AMP steps are tested in extreme weather. The high-torque motors are designed to push through moderate ice buildup. If the ice is too thick, the anti-pinch sensors will stop the board to prevent motor damage.
Yes, automatic car washes are generally safe, but we recommend checking that the steps are fully retracted before entering. Hand washing or touchless washes are always the safest option for aftermarket accessories.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks

High Quality , great fit. Look awesome.
Sliders look and fit great. Pretty simple and straightforward install however, the install video did leave out some key details and extra non-applicable hardware made install slightly confusing.
My new Rock Sliders “Rock!” I love em’ the fitment was perfect and they look awesome on my 4Runner TRD-ORP!
Had a few issues at the beginning with some missing nuts in the package but that was easily rectified with a trip to the hardware store. This thing is built like a tank, and it's been rock solid heavily loaded over some very rough terrain.
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Great fast shipping. Robert was great and helpful
Fit and install as advertised
Nice product. Wish the step was flatter. On the large end I drilled and taped two more holes on the outside edge to pull it down better. After that I’m very happy with them.
Nice, quality sliders that are straightforward to install. They look good on the truck and are very functional. That being said, the one negative was the long delays on shipping and delivery, and communication was less than optimal to say the least.
Love the easy install and videos!
