Do these interfere with the jack points?

No. You can still jack it up with the running board installed. I think the 1st Gen boards interfered, but these boards do not.

Don't know... It looked like it clear the jack point location, but I'll double check again later

I’ll add my 2 cents, but may not be directly applicable, although OP did ask the question about retractable running boards.
I have a 2019 Ram 1500 Limited with retractable running boards. They work great! …until they don’t.
I used them frequently, as the default height of the truck is higher than the Cybertruck in low or medium height. And, to boot, the Limited came with an adjustable air suspension, just like the Cybertruck, with the key difference in the ability to set a height and leave it at that set point. It always reverts to the Ram’s medium setting, which is higher than Entry, Low, and Medium on the Cybertruck.
The steps were very useful for entry/exit of the truck.
The problem is when they stopped working about a year or so ago, they were stuck in the deployed position, with an occasional retraction here and there. Now they’re just stuck all the way out. Talk about shin ninjas!
🥷
I didn’t bother having them repaired because it’s my back up vehicle and I don’t see the point in dumping money on something that will likely break again.
My point is, after that experience, I would never go retractable again. IF I were to purchase running boards, I would go stationary for sure. But as @Alpine said, I don’t think they are necessary on the CT.

Me! Or, I guess UP, if you want to get technical about it.

Are those square tubing or angle iron? They have similar on Amazon but they don't look very strong https://a.co/d/0cVqMXyk

Square tubing.

Nice. I don’t think they are as cool if you don’t have to wait two years and selll a kidney to get them.
Seriously though, UP stuff is usually pretty nice quality.

This is the Tsportline AeroMaxx Running Boards on my previous Long Range RWD. I liked the flush minimalist look.

Those are great looking. And I would add probably more useful in a truck that doesn’t lower itself for entry.

I like these

I like these

They also retain the ability to add shielding to the bottom of the truck. Granted, it can’t be Tesla’s pretty fairly priced terrestrial armor, it has to be UP’s product which is made of solid unobtainium, but you can add it.
if you take your cybertruck off-road, that matters.

Works for me.

In for Cybertruck.co boards/rocker. Had since they first came out. Full foot area, and can jack the truck anywhere along them. Very stout, and are easy on and off.

Got these off Amazon. WheelX

They might interfere with a lift, but they don't cover the jack points.

Wanted to chime in about running boards/side steps since there will be an influx of new Cybertruck owners searching for solutions. I have installed and used a number of running boards, most of the ones you will find on Amazon and through etc. My previous go-to was the ones pictured below. I recently bought a pair of the TSportline Lower Rocker Panel Side Steps and I have to report that these are the BEST running boards for the Cybertruck in my opinion. For starters, these side steps blend perfectly with the lower rocker panel making them nearly invisible and maintaining the original look. Some have complained about the opening in the front and back of these side-steps worried that a critter may get inside. In case you are not aware, the Cybertruck has opening in the wheel well that are large enough for large critters to get inside the actual truck where they can do real damage. I made a video on YouTube when my daughter's full-grown cat got stuck inside my Cybertruck in the vault storage area. I would not worry about the very small opening in these side steps. In fact, I like that the opening gives a way to flush out any rocks, dirt, debris that may enter during driving or off-roading. There are several other key features of these side steps that are underrated and that I did not realize until I got them:

1. These steps provide a much more secure and strong feeling step than other boards I have used.

2. The smooth clean look under the truck since these boards wrap around and no loss in ground clearance. I didn't realize how bad the low-hanging framework looked until I saw a video of my truck using summon recently.

3. Easiest boards to install. Just slide them on and install 5 hex screws and that's it. I had my wife step on them so the holes would line up. Install these first time in about 10-15 min per side.

As you can tell, I am super happy with these. They are made in the USA and I think they might still be on sale right now.

Surprised these ones haven't been mentioned yet because of their superior materials and construction vs. a lot of cheaper ones: Real Wheels Running Boards
