Anyone have any opinions on either the Aries 4" oval or the Raptor 4" oe ovals? Think I've narrowed it down between those two.

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

I just ordered the N-Fab bed assist (3 steps) today from Autoanything and they knocked $50.00 off of listed $450.00 price. I used to not like how the steps looked now I think their the best looking (tough truck) ones out there. It's weird how our thinking changes once we are the ones selecting.

Pleased with Autoanything from past purchases plus these will be on by doorstep no later than Thursday.

I've got the same ones on my truck! I love them. In my opinion, they are by far the best looking nerf bars for our trucks

I have the same ones on mine, but less than a year of being installed there is rust bubbling up from under the paint. NFab will replace as part of the warranty, they were very helpful, the only thing is that you are stuck paying the shipping back. And for me it doesnt make sense to pay little over $125 to ship them back to houston when im already in houston, but they wont allow me to drop off in person instead of shipping them.. i bought them for the decent cost and quick delivery, (from seller on ebay, actual store not individual) now i need to decide what to do...

 

For the additional cost of shipping them back i can pay i think it was an additional $30 so for around $155 or so i can have them blasted and re-powdercoated.

 

Mine were not the full length with 3 steps, they are the 2 step ones that stop before the bed, and they ran right under $400 when i bought them..

I'm having the same problem with mine. I have offset wheels and live off gravel so my paint is looking pretty crappy on them. I don't even want to think about how much they'd be to ship back from mid Missouri if it's 125 for you

If you are considering, the rep i spoke with at NFab stated stand alone the hardware alone is 80lbs, now i didnt clarify with him, so cant honestly say if that is 80lbs boxed up or just the pieces before boxing, i had asked because i didnt want to uninstall them to go around town getting quotes to box and ship, the shipping i stated above was based on finding a box to hold them and adding about 8lbs just for the packing material to make sure it was safe. Fedex here requires atleast 2" of material on each side between the item and box wall, ask me how i know ;) Had to ship something expensive last year and i boxed it up myself and they wouldnt insure it for what i was asking unless i added more material.

Does anyone have the factory installed boards still?

 

I have a 2016 Silverado Crew Cab LT and looking to add them.

 

I'm not going for the "tough truck" look, this is a pavement queen.

 

Thoughts? http://autocustoms.com/p-738-ionic-voyager-running-boards.aspx

I ended up going with nerf bars for my LT. But if you do go the factory route, I would keep an eye out on craigslist for someone taking off theirs. Might be able to get them cheaper than the aftermarket ones.

I have not read through this whole thread but for those looking at Amp research, there is another company out there called Bestop Power Board http://www.bestoppowerboard.com/

 

 

 

Just throwing it out there - seems they might cost a bit less.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By No1UKnow · Posted

      Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
