The AMP Research BedStep 2 mounts between the cab and the rear tire and puts a solid step exactly where you stand when you need to reach over the bedside. Step up onto the non-slip tread surface, swing a leg over the bedside, and get to your toolbox or your cargo without climbing anything. Anglers, campers, and anyone who works out of a pickup use it the same way and for the same reason: less strain, fewer slips, and fewer pulled muscles at the end of a long day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe step is built from high-grade aluminum, and all pivots use corrosion-resistant stainless steel, so the pivots resist corrosion over the life of the step. The tread surface is non-slip and the step handles loads up to 300 lbs. All joints are self-lubricating, so there is no greasing schedule and no maintenance over the life of the step. AMP Research lists the step material as aluminum, the step type as a truck bed step, and the step finish as a textured black powder coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperation is manual and hands free. The BedStep 2 has no motor, no wiring, and no switch. Kick the step downwards to deploy it, and when you are finished, give it another nudge upwards and it retracts beneath the bed. Between uses the whole assembly sits up under the bed instead of hanging below the bedside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafer bed access\u003c\/strong\u003e - Step up and swing a leg over the bedside instead of climbing your pickup's tire or leaping onto the tailgate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e300 lb load rating\u003c\/strong\u003e - Rated to handle loads up to 300 lbs, so you can step up with gear in hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum and stainless build\u003c\/strong\u003e - High-grade aluminum construction with corrosion-resistant stainless steel at all pivots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTextured black powder coat\u003c\/strong\u003e - AMP Research lists the step finish as a textured black powder coat over the aluminum step.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRetracts out of the way\u003c\/strong\u003e - The step retracts beneath the bed between uses, so it is not hanging under the bedside when bed access is not needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZero maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e - Self-lubricating joints mean no grease, no seasonal service, and nothing to keep up with after the install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriver or passenger side\u003c\/strong\u003e - The BedStep 2 mounts to the driver side or the passenger side, so it goes on whichever side you load and work from.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 Year Limited Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e - Backed by AMP Research for three years from the date of purchase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003c!-- specs-table --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAMP Research\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTruck Bed Step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 Year Limited Warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured Black Powder Coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation uses vehicle-specific brackets, so the mounting points are matched to your truck rather than adapted from a universal kit.

It covers defects in materials or workmanship on select AMP Research branded products properly installed per the provided instructions, and it lasts three years from the date of purchase. The warranty expires if the product is removed from the original vehicle or if the original vehicle is transferred to another owner, and it is not transferable from the original purchaser. It does not cover damage, defect, or malfunction caused by misuse, abuse, accident, improper installation, modification, improper or inadequate maintenance, or on-road and off-road hazards. Within the warranty period AMP Research will, at its option, either repair or replace a defective product at no additional charge, though labor charges tied to removing or reinstalling the product fall to the owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c!-- comparison-table --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAMP Research BedStep 2 Truck Bed Side Step\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAMP Research BedStep Truck Bed Step\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAMP Research PowerStep Power Running Boards\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRetractable bed side step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRetractable truck bed step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowered running board\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMounting location\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBed side, between cab and rear wheel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear of the truck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnder the cab doors, both sides\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOperation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManual, kick down to deploy, no wiring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManual, no wiring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowered, extends and retracts on its own\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-grade aluminum, stainless steel pivots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured black powder coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured black powder coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured black powder coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLoad rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInstall\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVehicle-specific brackets and hardware, drilling on some applications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVehicle-specific bolt-on\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBolt-on plus wiring to vehicle power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReaching over the bed rail without climbing the tire\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStepping up at the rear of the truck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGetting in and out of the cab on a lifted truck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- key-facts --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to handle loads up to 300 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt from high-grade aluminum with corrosion-resistant stainless steel at all pivot points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFinished in textured black powder coat, with a non-slip tread step pad.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAll joints are self-lubricating, so the step requires zero maintenance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBacked by a 3 Year Limited Warranty from AMP Research, a RealTruck company.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- faq-block --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/FAQPage\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 itemprop=\"name\"\u003eWhat is the AMP Research BedStep 2 made of and how much weight does it hold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv itemprop=\"text\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BedStep2 is built from high-grade aluminum with corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction at every pivot point.
