Smart App Control. Chiseled Design. 5-Year / 60,000 Mile Warranty.

The Ultimate Intelligent Running Board

The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series is the next evolution of the legendary electric-powered running board. Designed specifically for the 2020-2024 Jeep Gladiator, this system gives you unprecedented control through a dedicated smartphone app. No more fumbling for manual switches—everything is handled from your fingertips.

Whether you’re navigating tight trails or parking in the city, the Smart Series allows you to override the steps to stay deployed or retracted. Proudly Made in the USA, it features a new chiseled profile that matches the aggressive body lines of your Gladiator perfectly.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Lifted Gladiators are hard to climb into, and traditional power steps can get stuck or deploy when you don't want them to (like in deep mud or during car washes).
The Smart Solution: The In-App Manual Override lets you lock steps up or down instantly. Plus, the integrated LED system ensures you never miss a step in the dark.

Gladiator Owner Review ★★★★★

"The Smart Series is a game changer for the Gladiator. I have a 3.5-inch lift and getting my kids in was a struggle. Now, they hop right in. The best part is the app—I can drop the steps to wash the mud off them without having to leave the door open. Much cleaner than the old manual switch setups."

- Mark S., 2023 Jeep Gladiator Mojave
Maintenance & Care Note

Off-Road Ready: While the Smart Series is built for adventure, we recommend rinsing the pivot points after heavy mud or winter salt exposure to ensure the smoothest operation for the life of the product.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Do I need to buy a separate OBD-II module?

The Smart Series kit includes everything you need for installation, including the controller that communicates with the app. It typically connects via the OBD-II port for a "plug and play" signal experience.

+ Can I control the steps if I lose my phone?

Yes. The steps will still function automatically whenever you open or close the doors. The app is required for manual override functions and light customization, but standard operation is automatic.

+ How does the auxiliary light port work?

The Smart Series controller features an extra port that allows you to plug in additional LED rock lights or accent lights. You can then turn these on or off using the AMP Smart Series app.

+ Are these steps durable enough for off-roading?

Yes. The PowerStep Smart Series is made from aircraft-grade aluminum. When retracted, they tuck tight against the rocker panel, providing more ground clearance than most static running boards. Use the app to keep them retracted during technical rock crawling.

+ Is drilling required for installation on the Gladiator?

The AMP Research PowerStep for the Gladiator is designed to use factory mounting points where possible. Some minor drilling may be required for wire routing or LED placement, but the main structure bolts to the vehicle's existing holes.

Prop 65

California Residents

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
