I figured I would post a few photos for everyone since I can't seem to find any other photos out there that really show you what these two steps can do. I'm not the greatest with a tape measure, but you can see the steps cut your distance in half to get into the truck or the bed.

Thanks for the pics, this is #1 on my wish list. (After my truck comes in). Did you do the install? How was it? Lots of drilling? Also if you don't mind, how much did you spend and where did you get them?

Love my powersteps...best addition to the truck IMO. Thanks for the pics, do you have any with the bedstep up?

I know a guy in the auto industry that gave me a steal. I won't give exact pricing, but it was under $1k and install cost me a bottle of Wild Turkey.

There wasn't a lot of metal drilling from what I remember and they all commented on how thought out the Amp mounting brackets were. I do know they varied from the measurements the install sheet gave on mounting the LED lights underneath. I think those measurements were for a quad cab as the rear lights would have been just behind the B Pillar- We moved them a few more inches back and they work perfect.

Ask and ye shall receive!!!! Had the step on for about 3 months now and have had no issues with it, nor does the proximity to the dual exhaust affect it in any way.

Just got done putting my Amp Powersteps on. They hit the front pinch weld and get stuck. Did your installer mention any issues with yours when installed. I've read and done all the minor tweaking you can do, they still hit with the end caps on.

I am working on this install now. The passenger motor is hitting the bottom of the cab. So I can't get it over the bolts.
Did you guys rotate the motor more like it is on the drivers side?
I don't see any other way to do this?

I read somewhere else they had that problem and the installer stepped on the front of the board and bôunced on it a time or two and that fixed it so it cleared the weld. I know how funny that sounds but whatever works.

That's correct, the instructions inform you before operating the steps, to make sure that you stand on them both front and rear to make sure the arms rotate fully and lock in. On mine, both sides had a very audible "click" once they locked into place and I had no issues with clearing the pinch weld afterwards.

Did you have the amp power step plug & play version?

If so how was the wiring hook up i heard you do not have to cut any wires just plug iit in to the OB connection.

I do not have the plug and play version as that model just came out.

I cannot speak about the wiring as I took it to a professional who wires cars for a living. They did mention several times how impressed they were with the quality of all the components given.

How d othe AMP steps hold up in the frigid months? AMP says silicone them and you would be good to go, but I am hesitant to order them since the majority of driving do in the truck is in the winter and the slush build up gets pretty bad.
