AMP Research PowerStep Xtreme Electric Running Boards, Part 78242-01A, for 2022–2023 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

"The original power-retractable running boards since 2002—and the most powerful PowerStep ever built. The AMP Research® PowerStep™ Xtreme running boards take everything proven about the standard PowerStep and add a dual-motor design engineered to power through snow, ice, mud, and debris, delivering consistent, reliable operation where single-motor boards struggle. If you live in or regularly drive in harsh conditions, this is the PowerStep built for you. ? Like all PowerStep variants, the Xtreme running boards are constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum with an advanced powder coat finish engineered to handle tough daily use year after year. Stainless steel hinge pins and hardware add long-term durability at every pivot point. Each board supports up to 300 lbs. per door—the same proven load capacity as the rest of the PowerStep family. The dual-motor design is the defining upgrade—two motors per side deliver the extra torque needed to operate reliably in demanding environments where ice buildup, packed snow, or debris would slow or stop a single-motor board. Beyond the drivetrain, the Xtreme shares the full PowerStep feature set—a 6-in.-wide slip-resistant step surface, integrated LED lighting for confident footing in low-light conditions, and automatic deployment and retraction that keep lines clean and ground clearance maximized when the boards aren't in use. ? AMP Research's patented plug-n-play design connects directly to your vehicle for unmatched seamless integration—no improvised attachments, no complicated wiring, no magnet alignment issues. An optional override switch is available for manual control when needed. Vehicle-specific fitment ensures a flawless fit right out of the box. ? Professional installation is recommended for all PowerStep Xtreme running boards. All hardware, bracketry, wiring, and vehicle-specific instructions are included. Drilling is required on select applications. Backed by a 5-year limited warranty."

Part 78242-01A features a dual-motor design that delivers additional torque on each side, helping the boards deploy and retract reliably when packed snow, ice buildup, mud, or debris would challenge a single-motor system. The boards automatically deploy when a door opens and retract tightly beneath the vehicle when the doors close, preserving ground clearance and maintaining a clean factory-style appearance. A wide, slip-resistant step surface and integrated LED lighting provide secure, well-illuminated entry in wet, dark, or low-light conditions.

Stainless steel hinge pins, OEM-quality motors, and vehicle-specific brackets provide dependable long-term performance. The patented plug-and-play design connects directly to the vehicle without improvised attachments, complex wiring, or magnet alignment. Newer applications use an OBD-II integration module for seamless operation. Professional installation is recommended. The kit includes the required mounting hardware, brackets, wiring, motors, and vehicle-specific instructions, and is backed by a 5-year or 60,000-mile limited warranty.
