Factory-style running boards leave a lot to be desired on lifted trucks and capable off-road SUVs, sitting too low to provide real clearance and too plain to match the Bronco's character. Rough Country's HT-Series Power Running Boards solve both problems with automatic retractable boards that deploy when the door opens and tuck cleanly under the rocker panel when closed. Aluminum construction keeps weight down while supporting up to 660 pounds per side, and integrated LED courtesy lighting illuminates the board in low-light conditions for confident entry and exit.
A high-torque motor system built for reliability. The redesigned motor at the core of the HT-Series delivers increased pulling power over previous-generation units, with precision-tuned linkage that produces smooth, controlled movement every time. Ultra-quiet operation keeps the experience feeling premium rather than mechanical, and the system is engineered for long-term durability in daily and off-road driving conditions.
Intelligent deployment keeps operation safe. Built-in delay deployment technology prevents unintended board movement during vehicle operation, reducing the risk of accidental extension while driving. Automatic SAFE-STOP technology adds another layer of protection by immediately halting the board if an obstruction is detected mid-cycle, protecting both passengers and the board's internal components.
Six inches of anti-slip stepping surface. The wide, textured stepping surface provides secure footing in wet, muddy, or icy conditions, making entry and exit easier for passengers of all sizes. When retracted, the boards sit flush with the rocker panel, shielding it from rocks, road debris, and trail hazards that would otherwise cause damage over time.
No-drill bolt-on installation. These boards mount directly to factory attachment points on the 2021-2026 four-door Bronco without any cutting or drilling. Rough Country backs the HT-Series with a 5-year limited warranty against structural and workmanship defects.
