Its die-cast aluminum linkage anchors to mounting points under the bumper with brackets made for this truck, and AMP Research rates the step to 300 lb. The glass-reinforced pad keeps its grip in mud and rain, the whole assembly wears a textured black powder coat, and AMP Research covers the step with a three-year limited warranty. Press the pad down with your foot to deploy it and kick the underside to stow it; there is no handle, latch or wiring.

The figure applies to the step itself, which covers a person climbing up with an armful of gear rather than cargo resting on the pad. Take hold of the bed rail as you step up; the brand asks for a handhold every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGone when you drive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFolded up, the step sits high and tight behind the rear bumper, so the truck keeps its stock look and nothing hangs down to catch on a curb.

The linkage bolts to those brackets, the step pad screws to the linkage, and every fastener has a torque value in the guide, which is why a torque wrench is on the tool list. Access behind the bumper is tight on most trucks, so expect to work by feel with extensions, and snug each bolt before torquing any of them so the brackets can settle into line. AMP Research recommends professional installation. The guide for this truck sets 4 torque values, from 5 ft-lb to 80 ft-lb.

Its PowerStep has been sold as a power-retractable running board since 2002, and the bed steps apply the same idea to the back of the truck by hand. Coverage is AMP Research's own limited warranty, written to the original purchaser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BedStep is the bumper-mounted half of AMP Research's pair of bed steps. It works at the back corner of the truck, for reaching over the tailgate or into the rear of the box, while the BedStep2 mounts ahead of the rear wheel for reaching over the bed wall toward a toolbox or the front of the bed. Both are foot-operated and rated to 300 lb. For the cab doors rather than the bed, the brand's PowerStep running boards deploy on their own when a door opens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth bed steps are built around aluminum structures finished in textured black powder coat, with composite step pads chosen for grip in wet and muddy conditions. Each one ships with brackets drawn for the truck it is ordered against rather than a universal kit, and AMP Research protects its designs with patents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AMP Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49443071099124,"sku":"AMP75326-01A","price":329.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4784\/0244\/files\/amp-research-bedstep-operating-0419547b_5797afe4-0d6c-4bd9-8997-721f9241f2d4.jpg?v=1790542830","url":"https:\/\/prestigetruck.com\/products\/amp-research-bedstep-bumper-step-2020-2024-jeep-gladiator-75326-01a","provider":"Prestige Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
