Most places charge $80 to $125 per hour to install accessories.  Some trucks are more difficult than others.  But, $100 to install Amp steps is stupid low.

Guess I was the guinea pig for these steps. Lol no one had pictures of them anywhere, even N-Fab didn't have any.. But here they are N-Fab Podium steps.

I pulled the trigger on these as well. I like the look. Hopefully they hold up

How are you liking these? I was looking at them and the go rhinos. Trying to make a decision. How was install?

Right on, they look good right? I like how the ends of the tube curve off towards the underneath of the truck

I’m still liking them. I think they look good and, well, they haven’t fallen off yet while stepping on them ? 

Install was super straightforward on the driver side - passenger side has a couple more steps because of a different front bracket. Overall fairly easy though (I had one person helping). If you want more pictures of them, let me know.

I’ve seen a lot of love for the standard Amp powersteps, I’m wondering if anybody has gotten the Xtreme version? After seeing some posts about guys having one end of the steps sag a bit I kind of like the idea of having motors on both ends. I just can’t seem to find any pictures of them actually installed.

Would anyone know how to get a replacement end cap for the factory running board? I have a 2014 Sierra All-Terrain, haven’t had any luck searching around. Thanks.

So I'm in the market for some running boards to help others get in the truck/stop the wear on my door sills. Whats my options on a running board that's tight fitting to the rockers don't want to give up to much and don't really want to spend over a grand for power steps either. Just looking for suggestions i like the dominator d6's but have read several stories of them coming damaged so just seeing whats out there. Thanks in advance!

I put on HD2 from RC. Love them still and they hug up to the body really close - which was one of my requirements.

I have the GoRhino RB20's.  They fit nice and tight up against the body ot the truck.12-21-18.thumb.jpg.ae4cf7f8e7d67371281976ac93406dc1.jpg5c890a990d797_Sideshot.thumb.jpg.37bea09914ef4cdb95a47bd7b69c3f2f.jpg

They look good are they up as tight as they go? I feel like the D6's are even a bit tighter to the rockers.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
