I installed Amp Research Power Steps on my GMT900 recently and will never own another truck without them.

Where are the stainless trim pieces I've seen on the Amp Power? I've only seen one user here with them.

Looks good!

They are an option I opted not to get them because it would bring more attention to the step and the small gap between the board and truck. I think it looks better without the stainless steel strip cause then the step is more hidden.

Hey guys, thuis may have been addressed (in this very thread) but I can't seem to locate it. We're up to 30 pages now so..

 

Anyway, I just put a set of 6" chrome steps on my crew, bought em off a guy who had them installed by the dealer. It came with 16 bolts, and 4 cage nut/clips.

 

The front 4 holes horizontal and vertical are threaded on each side, the back horizontals are not, nor is the verticals. You acn use the clips on the verticals, but there's nothing to use in the horizontals in the rear?? I have 4 bolts left over and I'm nervous about heavy passenger getting into the rear of my truck.

 

What do?

^+1 I never noticed the uneven gap til it was brought up on here, and now.... minor, but there.

has any body cut these boards down to fit rec.cab yet . I thought about buying a double cab set if they are adjustable and leaving them long to stick under the bed so I have a step back there

Not a bad idea. Only thing is you would have to open. The door everything you want to use the step in the bed

 

Edit: I'm not sure but I think they only make one size board and you have to cut it down. I could be wrong but that's what I am under the impression of for double cab vs crew cab.

opening the door would not bother me .I just like the thought of it being out of the way when I am driving ,

The control arm to board mounts are adjustable. Where mounts to the board is on a track that until the screws that hold the board to the arm are tightened. They can slide. Once the screws are tightened and the boards are on, they will not slide anymore.

Yea they are quite expensive. Where are you located? If you are anywhere near me you can see mine. I think you have a very cool idea to make one into a bed step and a cab step.

Just chacked. Extended cab and crew cab are the same part number and therefore the same thing. If you order a 'extended cab version' you will get the exact same thing I got for my crew cab except you would have to cut it to fit an extended cab. After cutting the end piece should reinstall no problem to the newly cut end.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
