JDZHYR Retractable Rear Bed Step for Dodge Ram 1500 (2024–2026) — OEM-fit, Corrosion-Resistant, Slip-Resistant

JDZHYR’s 82216597AC retractable rear bed step provides a secure, flip-down foothold that makes accessing the bed of compatible Dodge Ram 1500 trucks faster and safer.

This heavy-duty retractable bumper step is designed specifically for Dodge Ram 1500 model years 2024, 2025, and select 2026 trucks (not compatible with 2026 RHO and TRX models).

The JDZHYR step balances rugged construction with a low-profile look so your truck retains factory lines while gaining practical functionality.
