They make extensions for them too, think it drops another 2".
The extension leaves a gap between the body though. They come down plenty low my 4 year old could step right in when my truck was at 9.5” front 6.5 rear lift

I was under the impression that the amp steps had fit issues with a 3" body lift? Can't remember where on this site I saw that

Is there an issue with the 3" BL and amp steps?
Yes there is, you have to notch the body mount bracket on the truck because the amp motor mounts and even the RBP won't fit with a 3" body lift ... I can confirm that ...that is why I haven't done the 3" body lift on my truck and I have the RBP steps ...

Perfect excuse to take the body lift off :p
I am going to eventually put the 3" body lift on mine ...right now I am able to park it in the garage, we are moving sometime next year and it will be outside so that is when I will lift it some more and being that my truck is 2wd the only option to go more than 7" is a 3" body lift ...or I give this truck to my wife and I get me a 2500 !

I would limit who gets in my truck before I removed a body lift so I could use Amp. Just use a regular set of steps would be my only way out .
