AMP Research Power Steps — Canada
Priced in CAD • No duties • No brokerage fees • Fast shipping across Canada
AMP Research is the inventor of the PowerStep — an automatic power running board that deploys when you open the door and retracts flush to the rocker panel when the door closes. The PowerStep solves the problem of fixed running boards that reduce ground clearance and collect mud and ice on lifted trucks, while still providing a full stepping surface when you need it. At MyPartsGuy.ca we carry the AMP Research lineup, all priced in Canadian dollars with no import fees or brokerage charges.
AMP Research also produces the BedStep — a retractable bed step that mounts in the rear bumper for easy rear bed access — and the BedStep2, which mounts to the rear bumper corner. Essential for tall trucks where bed access would otherwise require climbing on the tire.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the AMP Research PowerStep work?
The PowerStep uses an electric motor to deploy the running board step when any door is opened, and retract it when all doors close. The mechanism runs off the door-open signal from your truck's wiring harness — no aftermarket controller required on most applications. Deployment and retraction take approximately 3 seconds.
Are AMP Research PowerSteps reliable in Canadian winters?
AMP Research PowerSteps are used widely across Canada including in cold-weather regions. Ice accumulation around the mechanism can cause slower operation in extreme cold. AMP recommends occasional lubrication of the pivot points for winter maintenance. The motors and electronics are sealed against moisture.
