Power Running Boards | HT-Series | Quad Cab | Ram 1500 2WD/4WD (2009-2018 & Classic)

HT-Series Power Running Boards: Step Up in Style: Sidesteps have evolved, and the HT-Series Power Running Boards take entry and exit to a premium level. These automatic, retractable running boards deploy smoothly when the door opens and tuck tight under the rocker panel when closed for a clean, factory-style appearance. A wide 6-inch anti-slip stepping surface provides confident footing in all conditions, while integrated LED courtesy lights illuminate the board when deployed and shut off when retracted for a sleek, streamlined look. Advanced Performance and Intelligent Operation: Built around a redesigned high-torque motor system, the HT-Series delivers increased power, long-term reliability, and ultra-quiet operation. Intelligent delay deployment technology helps prevent unintended movement, improving safety during vehicle operation. Precision-tuned linkage ensures smooth, controlled extension and retraction every time, creating a refined, OEM-quality experience you can feel and hear. Premium Aluminum Construction: Crafted from lightweight yet durable aluminum, these 6-inch all-season running boards are built to handle daily use and harsh environments. Each side supports up to 660 pounds, making entry and exit effortless for passengers of all sizes. When retracted, the boards help protect your rocker panels from road debris, rocks, and trail hazards. Safety-Focused Design: The HT-Series Power Running Boards feature automatic SAFE-STOP technology that immediately halts operation if an obstruction is detected, helping protect passengers and internal components during use. Easy No-Drill Installation: Designed for a straightforward, bolt-on installation using factory mounting points, these boards require no drilling. Once installed, they sit tight and in-line with the rocker panel for a low-profile look that enhances both function and style. Warranty: Rough Country backs the HT-Series Power Running Boards with a 5-Year limited lifetime replacement warranty against structural and workmanship defects. This industry-leading coverage delivers confidence and peace of mind on every drive.
