Does anyone have any good leads on AMP plug n play running boards.  Id love a set of these, but at $1500, there is no way in hell I'm going to bite that bullet. 

 

Any vendors that have these for a good price?  Do they ever go on sale?  I see at some point AMP was doing a rebate on them, but that doesn't appear to be the case right now.

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

If anyone is looking for a set of RB10 running boards, I just got brand new ones for a double cab due to warranty and ended up trading the truck in. So I have a brand new set with brackets in Texas. Honestly, they're fantastic running boards.

Are they the 2 step version or single step?

Do you have pics

Since im here, figured id ask, there was a set of RB boards, i think it was that fit snug up under the cab, but then had a smaller step under it like this:

Im not sold on this particular style, but i am looking for suggestions on a good set of boards that will help with a lifted truck

ICI Magnum RT Steps are kinda similar to that, got mine for around $300, cab length.

I like those, but that looks like just 1 step right? i mean if you were climbing stairs, that would be just 1 to climb, I had found one set of boards, and now i wish i would have saved the link or even the name, but it was 2 steps to get in, so you had a similar step like yours, but then above that you had a full cab length step so if anyone needed 2 steps, they could and not have to do one huge step. If i didnt have the lift, i would go with those or something similar.. Like the truck.. :)

I got mine installed today in South Florida for $1400. Dealer did it through a local shop. I asked the shop what it would cost to go direct to them and they told me $1900. Didn't make sense to me.

Got rid of the ugly purple LED pods that the AMP boards game with. Can't believe they supply them with such ugle lights.

Bought these on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B073ZGNDTC?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_yo_pop_mb_pd_t2

 

They were the only LED strips I could find with the 3M VHB adhesive tape. I like how they were enclosed inside a black rubber strip, so you can't see the LEDs unless you bend down and look under. They are extremely bright; brighter than what I wanted.

 

Before:

well after a little over a year and a half my RB10s have started peeling. I forgot to register with go rhino. Anyone have any experience getting them replaced?

Has anyone installed a set of the Go Rhino RB20s? was looking at these as a more minimalist approach and tossing the drop step onto the passenger side for the GF. Thanks.

Yes I installed those had the n-fabs but if your aiming is off you fall off so really liked the look of the go rhinos and would highly recommend them

      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.
