Concerns about step pad durability, overall satisfied

The only thing that concerns me about the step is the type of plastic that is used for the step pad. Time will tell how it will hold up. As often as it will be used, I would imagine it will last the life of the truck.

Decent product, but some issues with fit

Easy that is if you're agile.As others have mentioned, it's not a perfect fit but if all the bolts/nuts are left loose until all are started it's easier.For the price it should fit better.

75312-01A fits above referenced vehicle perfectly even though AMP says you need 75328-01A.You will need a 24 mm box end or open end wrench for the install. 24MM socket will not go through the holes..

Great addition to my 2018 F150!

I was disappointed that Ford doesn't offer a bumper with corner step like Chevy so you can step up with the tailgate down. This completely fixes that. I was hesitant to get it because it was a little pricey, but after installing it and using it for a month, I can say it was well worth it and I would do it again. The installation wasn't as easy as I expected as it required multiple trips to my shop to get tools and adapters to reach the bolts that need to be removed and reinstalled. It also took some massaging to get the holes in the clamshell design to line up. It didn't take more than an hour though. I use it all the time on my 2018 F150 and would strongly recommend it.

This a strong, well-made, functional fold-away step that is of great help for someone that gets up and down to their truck bed often.The step folds away neatly. It can be positioned to poke out a little bit or be more flush with the bumper - see pics.You may need a socket extension in addition to other items listed in the instructions.It is listed to fit a F-150 2015-2020 and it was ordered with the full knowledge that it may or may not fit a 2021. The short answer is that if the 2 nuts (left) that attach the bumper to the truck circled in red in the pic are 21mm (as per AMP instructions) then it should fit - IF they are 24mm nuts (in other 2021+) then you will have several significant issues. Before you order this item you may want to check if you have 21 mm nuts there.For standard installation regardless of your truck year, I have 2-3 tips- when assembling the large triangular bracket only loosely insert the 13 mm bolts - you need these loose to afford play when eventually inserting the 2 x 15 mm bolts- set the triangular bracket aside and very carefully thread the 2 x 15 mm bolts into the spring-loaded arm until about 3/8"" remains exposed. Once you make sure you have these straight-threaded (and not cross-threaded) THEN unscrew them and attach the spring-loaded arm to the triangular bracket (not forgetting the small angled piece) using these same holes- rotate the small angled piece such that the end is parallel to the 2 larger bolt holes. Torque down the 15 mm bolts, torque down the 13 mm bolts.Issues you will likely encounter installing on a 2021 (with 24 mm bolts)- the bolt holes in the triangular bracket will need to be drilled slightly larger- you will need a 24 mm socket. These are typically 1/2"" drive.- if you can find a short-socket you *might* be able to finagle the socket with the 24mm nut up the channel on the side of the triangular part and tighten the nut in that manner- i could only find a long socket - it did not fit through the larger socket holes' and those had to be drilled/filed larger

This step is nice and sturdy. That's what I was looking for. Debated on ordering a less expensive brand, but after reading reviews I decided to step up ( lol ) and get the one with the best reviews.Tucks away fairly well also.

Once installed my husband is very happy with how well this works.Installation: was a moderate amount of effort for a very handy guy with a lot of tools in his box. This isn't something you can install with a basic tool collection.

Installation Issues, Overall Satisfied with Purchase

Very sturdy and installation reasonable. I reversed the assembly steps #1&2 as explained in earlier post because otherwise the holes did not align. Luckily I have clamps to pull it together to get the initial assembly completed. I gave it 4 stars because I paid a premium price and had to McGiver the installation. For the price I expect everything to go together as stated in the instructions without issue. Seems well built and carries my weight easily, time will tell.

Life-changing truck step for older individuals

I can finally get up on the bed of my 2020 Ford F150 without the need for a small step stool.(ha ha).I am 71 years old now and getting up on the bed of my truck was becoming quite the chore.I researched all the other brands and decided on this one. It is a very well made truck step, that I have no doubt will last the lifetime of this truck and me too.Easy to drop down to use and just as easy to put back up out of the way.It was fairly easy to install and I would definitely recommend this brand to any truck owner,especially an older person like myself, whose body just doesn't work like it use to.

I've got a 2016 F150 that I ordered this step for. I had to use a round file to widen one bolt hole to be able to make all the parts fit together properly. Other than that, it seems like it's going to work perfectly.

Misaligned Bolt Holes and Inaccessible Torque

Seems sturdy, but some of the bolt holes didn't line up. Some of the bolts should be torqued before installing on the truck. Can't get a torque wrench on them after installing.

Quality Control Issues Detract from Solid Product
by Valued Customer - July 07, 2023

This thing is really solid. Good materials and well thought out design. Fits the truck perfect. But the company needs to pay more attention to quality control. I had to drill out the holes to make it work. The bracket is simply made incorrectly. Tolerances on the manufacture are too tight. I have my own machine shop so was able to easily do the mods necessary to make it work. The cast parts are solid, well made, and no trouble. But the steel bracket needs better production controls. Its a challenging install and I would not recommend this product to anyone not mechanically inclined.

Sturdy and reliable step, highly recommended

To get it out of the way first, some of the holes may not exactly align right away. Because most of the holes are cut before the part is folded, they may be off slightly. This is pretty normal for any kind of formed part like this. Follow the cardinal rule of machine assembly - Start all bolts before tightening any - and you will be fine. I did have to use a bar clamp to align the last bolt, but it didn't take a lot of effort. The end result was a very sturdy step that looks great.I will caution that it does take some effort and a good torque wrench or two. On my 2015 F150, it was a bit of a chore to get the wrenches in to all the tight places they needed to go. A bit of patience, and everything went together.The operation of the step is very simple. It pops up and down with ease. It stays put in either position. Standing on the step feels very solid, and it is wide enough for both of my big feet for good firm footing. I am very happy with the step, and my old knees will thank me.
