The Original Automatic, Electric-Powered Running Board. Seamless Integration. Professional Grade.
Step Up Without the StruggleGetting into your truck shouldn't feel like climbing Mount Everest. The AMP Research PowerStep is the premium solution for the modern Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra owner who demands both accessibility and a clean, stealthy aesthetic.
Designed and engineered in the USA, this electric-powered running board instantly extends when you open your door, providing a natural step height. When the doors close, it retracts safely out of sight, improving ground clearance, aerodynamics, and the overall look of your truck.
The Problem & The Solution:The Pain: High-clearance GM trucks are notoriously difficult for children and elderly passengers to enter. Fixed running boards often look bulky, trap mud, and reduce your break-over angle when off-roading.
The AMP Solution: An automatic, hidden step that offers the perfect stepping height only when you need it, and completely disappears when you don't.
Key Features: The PowerStep Advantage
Simplified installation via a harness that connects directly to the OBD-II port. No complex wire splicing or tapping into factory door wires.
High-strength, die-cast aluminum alloy components support up to 600 lbs on each side with absolute stability.
Low-profile LED lights illuminate the boards and the ground when doors are open, ensuring safe entry in total darkness.
The durable black textured finish and self-lubricating bushings handle snow, ice, mud, and dust with ease.
Aircraft-grade aluminum construction with stainless steel pivot pins ensures your steps won't rust or seize up.
Integrated sensors automatically stop the board if an obstruction is detected, protecting your passengers and the motor.
Over-Engineered for Professional UseWe don't cut corners. The AMP PowerStep is built to withstand the rigors of daily use in the toughest environments. From the job site to the campsite, its maintenance-free design and high-torque motors keep you moving without failure.
600 lbs Capacity Per Side Plug-N-Play OBD-II Wiring LED Included Lighting 5 Year Product Warranty
"I installed these on my 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and the difference is night and day. My wife used to struggle to get in, now it's effortless. The Plug-N-Play harness made the electrical work a breeze. They look fantastic when tucked up—you can't even tell I have running boards."

Specifically designed for the refreshed GM body styles. Fits the following models:
2022-2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 HD 2022-2026 GMC Sierra 1500 2026 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HDProfessional Tip: These steps help maintain the resale value of your truck by staying hidden from road debris and potential damage while retracted.
Yes. This kit is specifically updated to work with the 2022-2026 refreshed Silverado and Sierra models, including the 1500 series and the latest 2026 Heavy Duty models.
Instead of tapping into multiple wires throughout the truck's cabin, the Plug-N-Play system uses a harness that connects directly to the OBD-II port. This allows the steps to read the door signals digitally for a faster and cleaner install.
The PowerStep is designed with self-lubricating bushings to handle mud and debris. While extreme ice can affect any mechanical part, the anti-pinch sensors protect the motors by stopping the step if an obstruction is detected.
Yes, automatic car washes are generally fine. We recommend that the doors remain closed to keep the steps retracted during the wash cycle to avoid interference with rotating brushes.
The AMP Research PowerStep is rated for 600 lbs on each side, providing heavy-duty support for all passengers.

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
We get it. You've got a lot of choice when it comes to online retailers.
Here's why we think you should shop with us at ExtrailAuto.
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
