Side bed steps

The F150 has steps available the fit on the side of the bed forward of the rear wheel wells. Has anyone ever tried to fit these to the F250. All I’ve been able to find are AMP branded ones.

Curious about the 150 one also. Another option to the AMP step is Bestop but they're often similarly priced.

I had wondered the same about the F150 bed step.

One would think Ford would make something for these Super Duties... They're a little bigger than the average F150... I'd love some of these side steps.

I'm ordering my F250 XLT with these factory steps. They're only $50 more than the nicer cab length steps, but still $749. They look nice enough, better than cab length IMHO, and I won't have to shop/install anything.

I searched many places and sites all I could find was AMP and I needed something quick to make it more easy
to access my tool box, I saved a few bucks by getting them through Snake River Performance last June.

Ford does make something -- the extended bed steps shown above. It also offers the AMP side steps, but only for the 6.9' bed.

Price on Snake River is $270, which is the same everywhere. By the way, AMP has a $40 mail in rebate until the end of January. I lucked out and got mine from Amazon Warehouse for $220 - rebate, should put me at $180.

@MrMajestyk - Are those the Bedstep 2 steps? I have a pair waiting to go on the truck (maybe this weekend, though I'm a bit pressed for time and I don't want to get into an extended project this weekend). Are they just bolt-on (no drilling)?

Thanks for all of the responses guess the AMP steps are it. These are the F150 steps I’ve been chasing ....

I put AMP's on my F150. I think it was a waste of money. The step was still too low to reach into the bed very far. It was easier to just step on the running board and then the rear tire. They also flexed quite a bit and I'm "only" 200 pounds.

Just be careful the first time you step on the rear black part. My dually came with those boards and the bolt was missing on rear mount on both sides. Dealer ordered the bolts and fixed.

I tried to order them from the factory for my 2021 F-450. They said that they are not available. I had the dealer install the amp step when it came in.

Man, I love the old school, classic Alcoa wheels on that F-450. I sure wish they made those for F-350s. Actually, I'm glad they don't -- it's much cheaper to stick with my factory wheels!

It doesn't take long to install the AMP Bedstep 2's. You can assemble most of the step ahead of time, then bolt it to the truck. It is mostly bolt-on, but one hole needs to be drilled in a plate for a bracket. It's not a difficult drill task.
I too found the Bedstep 2's flex a bit...from side-to-side. I weigh 220lbs. The instructions show attaching the step pad in an offset fashion. You can also attach the pad centered to reduce flexing.
Despite the flexing, I'm still glad I have them.
