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

Looking to buy a set of amp steps for my 2017 1500.  It currently only has a 2" level but I plan on lifting the truck next year so wanted to just buy them now.  Is anyone running these on a 2" level?  I'm just curious as to how low they drop down when they are in the down position.

Just won a set of AMP steps with plug and play off ebay for $560...... lucky day

Have you received these yet?  I have found something similar, just worried that it could be too good to be true.

yes i have received and installed them. 100% legit from a verified seller on ebay with 100% feedback so i trusted it. the lowest price i have seen by it now is around 1200 so i got extremely lucky with the no reserve auction.

Heres the Westin HDX installed on my 17 LTZ.

 

Fairly easy install, would have been a lot easier if the damn brackets were labeled, didn't even use the instructions as they were not very understandable. Also had hell getting one of the bolts started, ended up being some slag inside of the bolt hole on the running board.

 

Not a fan of the way any boards look but couldn't justify the Amp researches, i also have a a very expensive gun and watch addiction I need to feed lol.

Those steps look great. They hug the rockers nicely.

I had to move the rear mounts forward to clear the cab mount , works great had to move it 6 inches and drill new holes it puts the rear mount right where i step so works perfect 

i cut the boards 44 inches

Facts are facts sir.

True.

Fact;

Running boards that are rocker mount aren't the best.

Frame mount are IMO.

I sort of disagree.  Both have pros and cons.  The problem with frame mount is that they require longer brackets and thus cause more stress on the frame.  Rocker mount has shorter brackets and are fine as long as the brackets are well made.  The most common type of mount is rocker panel and I've never really heard of anyone tearing off their step bars from the mount.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Zane · Posted

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
