I have these on my truck! One of the best improvements I've made to date!! Amp Research didn't have any of them, but Amazon did!!! So it worked out well!

[@Area51Base]

I purchased a set from a local 4wheel shop with free installation few years ago. I love them.

[@GearsGadgets]

Yeah they are an awesome addition and a real nice feature.

[@sockmonkey22]

This is perfect for assisting a senior citizen getting too old to climb, or someone with bad knees if you buy anything beyond a sedan. I do senior caregiving and if I pull up with a Jeep or truck this extra step would be awesome.

I agree. They have a lot of uses. My 3 year old LOVES them.

[@dwightraine9686]

I have a pair on my 2016 Ford F150 lariat model, i’ve had them on my truck for about two years now and a great and wonderful everybody loves them makes it easier for my wife to get in and out of the truck the great product. They’ve been flawless and the way they operate I’ve had no problems with them they’re out of the way when you don’t need them they quickly deploy when you do.One of my favorite purchases

[@GearsGadgets]

Totally agree, they get a lot of great comments and they work awesome.

I just installed these on my 19' 2500 and as soon as I stuck the fuse at the hot wire in the steps raised up and won't go down when I open the doors. I assume this is the same instal as the 18 you did so I was hoping maybe you could point me in the right direction. Did you ground to the frame and where did you tie in the hot wire to the battery. This battery has like 5 different locations and Im thinking this may be my problem. Thanks in advance!

[@GearsGadgets]

I totally understand. I get the same thing. It’s like you’ve just stepped out of a space ship.

[@BAGINAZARD]

06:58 Might want to get the AMP Research Override Switch because standing on that will cause heavy strain on the gears, and motors over time. That will lower the life expectancy of them in the long run. The switch is also real simple to install and they allow you to keep the steps up when you don't want them out, and down when you want to clean them.

Thank you TRICKSTA. It is on my agenda.

My driver's side developed a clicking sound when they reach the fully retracted position and if deployed I can pull it up slightly and get the same click. Called customer support a couple times to help troubleshoot. Ultimately they recommended about $50 in replacement parts. Dealership installed when truck was new, that was three years ago and they haven't needed anything other than lubed until now.

[@GearsGadgets]

+Steve007362436 that’s pretty solid. I had no issues with durability but I have read other reviews that say they are holding up. I’ve seen some complaints of icing up, I didn’t have any problems in Buffalo, NY with them.

[@Steve007362436]

I replaced the main shaft and brass drive gear, also a wedge that locks the upper link into a flat on the main shaft, kinda hard to describe. Working perfect again. Really nice to have with a 6" lift and 325/60R20 tires and the truck looks better with them hidden away.

[@dhansel4835]

My experience today was a disaster. I have a 2016 RAM Laramie 1500 truck. I had the chrome steps but they were too close to truck to be any use. I went to the dealer and had the automatic step running boards installed today. They seemed to work OK. I drove down to Home Depot which was about 2 miles down the road. When I got in of the truck the running boards retracted then extended and retracted over and over. It was doing this on both sides. My wife was upset not knowing if they would just break and fall down. We were about 1 mile from the dealer so I headed down the feeder road all the time the running boards were banging up against the truck. The accessory lady came out and saw what was going on. I video recorded this while they were looking at this. She called the people that put them in and told her to leave the truck. I got a loaner truck from the dealer and went home. This was my experience with the electric running boards. I hope they can get this problem fixed as soon as possible.

[@GearsGadgets]

Good lord, sorry to hear that. Were they AMP boards?

[@dhansel4835]

@@GearsGadgets I saw initals on them but I didn't have them long enough to get a good luck at them. I never heard so much noise as these thing were slapping against the truck in my life. I hope it didn't break any gears on the motors. I guess I will pick it up after lunch today. I believe these dealers are having authorized 3rd party people that make their rounds installing things like electric running boards, bed liners and bed covers.

[@dhansel4835]

@@GearsGadgets Yes ! I got the truck back this afternoon and took a picture of the logo badge on the running board. It was the name AMP RESEARCH. They seem to be working now. Boy what a sound as they were opening/closing/opening and closing over and over. I thought they were going to tear themselves apart.

Do you think this will fit on my 2007 jeep grand cherokee?

[@joshnadamproduction]

Would suck when the battery goes weak or as a motor wears out years later but I do like the hide away looks sleek

[@GearsGadgets]

Motors on mine haven’t worn out but in all reality even with that consideration, most running boards I have seen end up pretty battered and weathered after several years with all the rocks that come up from the front tires, mud kicked off boots, and in the northern climates, snow that turns to ice chunks full of road salt that just eat them alive.

[@rushtanto8671]

Hi, is there any option for me to use it on my 2003 CRV and my 2000 chevy blazer?

[@ronhobyak9902]

My wife is handicapped, We use a step on the ground for her to get into my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Is there there a product on the market for just the front passenger side? And can I get it installed with handicapped insurance funds for free? Any suggestions ? Not used as off road just used on city roads mostly. MI

[@rickygonzales5939]

Will both steps retract if both doors are open at the same time,or do both automatically retract if one door opens?

[@GearsGadgets]

They operate independently of each other. Each side only expands and retracts if that sides doors are open or closed.

[@anan7s294]

Where do u put the jack after installing these? If someone accidentally places the lift under these steps, and lifts the vehicles up for service will it hold the body weight and still function normally?

[@5thGenNativeTexan]

I put a set on my lifted F-150. I'm very happy with the steps themselves, but was very disappointed with the lights. You'd think that for $1,800 they could include some decent lights that are brighter than a $2 flashlight. Pulled them off and replaced them.

[@GearsGadgets]

Interesting. What did you replace them with? I personally thought the ones that came with it were fine but just my opinion.

[@5thGenNativeTexan]

@@GearsGadgets Way too dim for my liking, and apparently it's somewhat of a common complaint as I read the reviews. I just found some short, 6-8 LED waterproof "strip" lights on Amazon. Very flat, the "COB" or Chip on Board LED style. Was literally $10 for a set of 4. amazon.com/gp/product/B087Q4KG95/

[@luisg6887]

Are the best for my gmc Sierra

[@brendonjenson3156]

Hi of your still around to answer questions are they still working nice now or what? I really want these but I don't want to spend that money if they eventually break.

[@GearsGadgets]

Im still around. They work great and I had no problems with them. I don't really hear of anyone having any issues with them. I do recommend the extreme version which I upgrade to because I have a good relationship with AMP. The extreme has 2 motors on each side which is just a better setup, but I didn't have any issues on the standard ones either so its up to you.

[@doseofjj2189]

Sorry I don't know if I missed it on the video or not but did you install the the lights aswell when they unfold..?

[@GearsGadgets]

yeah I did, not sure if it was in the video or not but it’s literally just double stick tape and takes seconds to install.

[@mikemestas8446]

I had the dealer install my AMP Boards and I loved them till they started to either not retract or deploy. I contacted AMP thru the warranty information provided with the paperwork. They gave me suggestions to fix them myself, I did everything they suggested and they still give me trouble. Wish they would provide me with some options to finally get these fixed. $1500 I should be provided with options to get these fixed……

[@GearsGadgets]

Man sorry to hear that. How long did you have them before they started acting up?

[@mikemestas8446]

About a year later after the installation. Nothing happened to the truck or the steps to cause them to act up. For whatever reason I have the most trouble in the summer months. There’s no rhyme or reason for them to act up. Sometimes they stay down and won’t come up and sometimes they won’t come down. Doesn’t happen all the time just randomly. @@GearsGadgets

[@rawirihemi27]

This is the one reservation I have with them, I feel like they are not going to work in a short amount of time.

[@MrHermangv]

That’s where am struggling to decide to buy them or not, I know that those type of mechanisms will eventually fail..

[@angryfishing7958]

I installed a switch on my steps so when I go mudding I can turn them off. If you don't as soon as you open a door the weight of the mud will not let them come back up. If you continue to mud and hit a good rut....say Bye bye steps and warranty. Experience speaking.

[@GearsGadgets]

I am going to add that switch too.

I've talked with a good number of AMP Research step owners (IN-PERSON) at their vehicle here in Canadian Rockies. Very low satisfaction rate, with most all of the units FAILING in 2 years or less.

I would have bought these (or the HD edition) had the results (life expectancy) been better.

[@GearsGadgets]

I agree chris18228. Thanks for the comment.

Anyone have issue with these not closing properly or jammed

[@ChannelOne-1]

Seriously! They don’t make a step that will fit without chop sawing it???

[@GearsGadgets]

You could just leave it long

[@crazyJZ15]

You guys should see the install on Mercedes Benz Sprinters 😅😅

Thank you Jay

Kind of sucks if you have other ODB2 devices you need to plug in. IE a Bluetooth scanner that you use to real time monitor engine data.

You can get a splitter and have 2 ports. Pretty cheap.

I have been having problems with my steps. I have 2014 chevy silverado with obdii connector. Sometimes they work sometime they don't. If i un hook the obd ii plug they work 3 or 4 times then they quit again. And un hook them again and back on amd work. Any suggestions?

Sorry for the super late reply Alberto Anaya. I appreciate that you stopped by the channel and apologize for not responding WAY sooner.
