I ordered the 75138-01A for my 2017 Ram 3500 Megacab truck on the recommendation of AMP Research. I did not want the "plug and play" wiring setup they have (which as of the time of ordering was the only option for my year truck) and the technician recommended the 75138-01A hard-wired version. He mentioned there may have been a wiring color change since the 75138-01A was made for trucks up to 2015, but I was able to confirm with the factory service manual (online version, with wiring diagrams) and in my truck that the wiring colors match the 2015 trucks. Install was a pain on my truck, but that was due to the pinch welds along the bottom of the truck...I had to do a lot of grinding of the sheet metal and of some of the bolt holes through the pinch weld (which was mentioned as a possibility in the install manual)...that is not a defect/problem with the AMP boards, but just manufacturing variance of the truck. My previous set of PowerStep boards (for a 2005 Ram 3500) installed easily with no massaging of the metal of the truck.

I had my previous PowerStep boards for 11+ years on my previous truck and had 0 problems with them, so I wanted another set for my new truck. When I got the new ones installed on my new truck, I had an odd problem that I couldn't find anyone describe on the internet. The boards would extend/retract correctly with doors open/closed. But about 30 seconds after all the lights on the truck went out after closing all doors, the boards would extend again and stay extended (with the included LED lights on) until I opened a door, locked/unlocked the truck, etc. I called AMP Research and talked with a rep (surprisingly the same rep I talked with months prior about which model to get for my truck) and he said it sounded like I was shipped the wrong controller, he said it sounded like I received a controller for a plug-n-play kit instead of the hard-wired kit. He promptly send me a replacement controller (no charge) and it arrived the very next day (I was expecting ground shipping, not next day so I was very surprised!) and I got it installed. that same day. It works perfectly now!

Cons: The install (for me) was much more difficult than my previous PowerSteps, but I chalk that up to variance in the truck, not the boards
Pros: Great looking boards, work very quickly. Also Excellent customer service (thanks, Chris!)!

I will buy from them again, and I highly recommend these boards. My wife and I are very happy with the boards on the truck.

This is the best addition to our truck so far, including the new speakers and amp. What a great product. They thought of everything including timed lights!

I was not sent the correct part for my application, then I finally got the correct wiring harness and only the passenger side will deploy. This is jerry rigged junk that should only be installed at the AMP Research facility.

I ordered the product after doing some research and multiple phone calls to the company to make sure i was getting the wright product for my brand new Ram 2500. After receiving the product and installing it completely the lights did not work and their is a clear wiring problem because their are two wires on the same harness that activate the driver rear door and you can't tell which one is the one you need. After calling customer service three times i finally got an answer "oh that year we had a bad batch of lights that the first two reps just said it was my fault you installed it wrong. After calling them and finally getting the correct light i have to cut and reinstall new light on the wiring harness. I ask for the company for some compensation for sending me a bad kit got NO call from a manager and no help, they simple said contact amazon. I think this is a poor business practice and especially a company who prides themselves of being made in the USA they are not very helpful they just like to push off to the company who sold it to you rather then dealing directly with the manufacture. You also can't buy directly from the company.

I don't know if i would buy any other product from AMP Research because of their poor support and help with a product that costs over $1000.00

Not happy

Was always skeptical about these kind of running boards, but decided to go ahead and get a pair. Now I would not have anything else. Simply put, they are great in every way. Yes, installation is more involved, but in the end worth it.
