I'm close to pulling the trigger on these. I wear a size 15 work boot, will there be enough room on the step for me? Or should I look more into the Rhino R10 boards?

I'm loving mine

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

Front step is a little over 15" wide, rear is over 11" wide (I don't remember the exact dimension from my research). Getting in and out, I have yet to literally put my entire foot on the step tread. I think you'd be fine, but I would suggest finding a retail source for these and take a look at them first given your shoe size.

15" wide (parallel to the truck) 4" deep (perpendicular to the truck)

Well I saw I truck around town with the RB20s and that did it for me. Ordered them the other day and installed them today. Ran into a small problem with the rocker threaded holes being full of crap and started to strip the bolts. I stopped and then ran and grabbed a tap to clean up the threaded holes (worked like a charm). Install was pretty straight forward and easy. Still debating where front to back I want to end up with the boards, but happy for now. eb3b22a249f025039117f46b08f1010f.jpgf2116666959735cbffa1c2e6d92ed322.jpg55ee604127dda58dda8f50d8935a3221.jpg

But then noticed this on the right side step after removing the packing material after install;

Needless to say N-Fab has already received an email. We’ll see how this goes.

I was looking at getting a set of these. Now that you've had them awhile, do you still like and recommend? What did you end up doing with the blemishes?

Sorry in the delay to reply, I was out of town.  I really like them and glad I went with the Podium LG’s.  Easy install and no problems with the replacement set.  N-Fab Customer Service was great in the return process.  I did have to wait a couple of weeks for the replacements because they were out of stock.  It wasn't that big of a deal since I still had the blemishes on.  The blemishes were returned.

How much did it run you? Where did you get it?

I ordered them directly through N-Fab's website.

They were $464 when I ordered them.  I checked with a local dealer before I order them and they wanted around $150 to install.  Like I said in my post, easy install which I completed on my driveway without jacking up the truck.

I appreciate the response and hope you had fund recharging the batteries. lol

Great to hear that about the CS as that's a big pet peeve of mine, as most are going downhill.  Once last question, are the steps themselves about the same height as the factory running boards or are they a little lower?

 

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks!

Truck came without factory boards, so I don't have a reference point.  I just went out and measured, the bottom of the step tube hoop is 10" from the ground on the front step and 10.5" from the ground on the rear step.  I have a stock extended cab with no lift or level.

 

Hope this helps

Appreciate it. Mine's been raised a little from Bilstein adjustable shocks and bigger rear blocks, so I am in the same boat on the measurement, because mine already sits higher. lol I was just curious as I am putting a 5" bracket suspension lift and was curious for my shorter girlfriend. Thanks again.

Quick question :

Are these running boards the ones for the crew cab Sierra 1500? I believe they are since there are 4 mounting brackets and it's 82 inches long.

      The 92-95 SCPI spider injectors are notoriously problematic and hard to source new replacements. I’d pull the intake manifold first to inspect cracked lines and brittle plastic legs before dropping $350 on a rebuild. The 1.5 OBD system only offers limited data, no misfire tracking, which is normal for this 1995 model. Enjoy the project!

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      Yea a fluid change is in order here. Honestly, your transmission didn’t even get hot. During the summer in stop and go traffic I’ve seen my 8l80 get up to 216 and it was still shifting smoothly.

      I'd change the fluid and start there.   198F is nothing for the 8L90.  They typically operate 180-200F stock.

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      By LCH14 · Posted

      Looking for help!   2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 5.3l 4x4 8l90 61k miles - truck is in Arizona, was over 110 outside on Monday when this whole situation transpired. Never had any major issues with transmission until this point:   Truck sat outside my construction office for approx 1 hour idling before I realized, ran around the job site wrapping some things up for the day and then left. Went to get food and sat in the drive through for approx 30 minutes idling. As soon as I pull out of the drive through and onto the main road, rear tires lock up and feels like transmission fell out of the truck. Shifted to park, shut the truck off and tried again, same thing happened. Was able to reverse into parking lot (truck slammed into reverse). Let the truck sit turned off for 10 minutes before trying again, but it continued to happen. Towed truck back to my house. Highest the trans temps reached was 198.   Friday, after work I start looking into the situation. Truck sat in my driveway untouched all week. Truck is now driving like normal, transmission doesn’t get over 185 degrees when trying to heat it up. Got up to 60 multiples times with no issues, no issues accelerating, only down shifted hard into first one time at 185 degrees. Does anyone have any insight? Never through a code or a check engine light. Truck has never been used to tow either. No transmission services at this point.

      Atlas won.   I know better, but I did it anyway. I took a compressed air line with a chuck and rubber tip and jammed it in the open EGR port. The port was clear as far as I could see, and as far as I could poke with a flexible wire, but that doesn't mean it's not clogged.   Compressed air blew back at me along with a cloud of black. Oops. I didn't have the rubber tip seated in there all the way. Jammed it up in there some more and squeezed the chuck. PSI was set to 120. Poof! It blew back at me again. Third time...pfffffttssssssspffffffsssfffffff, face full of carbon, and then, kind of a thud..and the air stopped spraying back at me. It was now exiting the exhaust with a low shhhhhh sound as it flowed through the pipe. Something broke free. I pressurized the port again, and air flowed.   Made my day.   Long story short on this problem, it's fixed. Something was really blocking the EGR passages down low, and compressed air blew it apart. I don't recommend this as who knows what debris was sent where. But it's allowed me to move forward, mentally, and onto the next problems I need to get this little S-Blazer going down the road properly again.
