The Transit is Ford's full-size cargo and passenger van, used everywhere from delivery fleets to camper conversions, and its higher floor and wider doors call for accessories built to commercial-vehicle scale. We specialize in electric running boards for the Transit: power side steps that deploy automatically when a door opens, giving drivers and passengers an easier, safer step up into the cabin or cargo area.
The Transit's ride height varies by roof and wheelbase configuration, from low-roof cargo vans to high-roof passenger models, which makes a fixed step height impractical for every build. Electric running boards solve this by retracting flush against the body when not in use.
A motorized actuator extends the step automatically when a door is opened or unlocked, and retracts it once the door closes, so the board is out of the way during driving and clearance is not reduced.
Because the Transit is sold in multiple wheelbase and roof-height combinations, running board kits are matched to specific body lengths; check the listing for your Transit's configuration before ordering.
These are aftermarket power step kits, designed to fit the Transit's frame mounting points rather than supplied by Ford. Installation typically involves bolting brackets to the factory frame rails and wiring the actuator into the door circuit; professional fitting is recommended.
No, the boards fold up against the rocker panel when retracted, keeping clearance close to stock.
Yes, as long as the underbody mounting points have not been modified for the conversion; check clearance around any added skid plates or tanks.
