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

I agree 100%. Much easier to get in and out of the truck now!

Anyone want stock chrome bars for a 15 Sierra 1500 club cab?  They are free if you pick them up at my place.

Im trying to install my Westin 4" Nerf bars in my 1 1/2 month old 2018 Silverado.  In the instructions it says there should be threaded holes in the body of my truck to install the brackets.  The only place that shouldnt have threaded holes is the back passenger side.   I even looked on youtube and everyone is showing the same.  Attached picture is my front drivers side rocker right after the front wheel.  As you can see there are no threaded holes to be found.  Its the same as this all the way around the truck.  

 

Anyone run into the same issue, or what am I doing wrong?

I love the high and tight appearance of the Amp Research steps over the OEM 6" rectanglular.  Especially on a 4x4 truck.5b6deb16c8077_IMG_0083copy.thumb.jpg.11da76b59a10d8f5adff7221ad0f2493.jpg

Good afternoon fellow GM owners. Brand new to the site. Need help finding hardware. I recently purchased a 2018 Silverado Crew Cab LTZ 4x4. My neighbor had a set of step bars off of a 2015 Silverado Crew Cab. (GM part #'s 22912947, 22912948) He said he'd sell for $20. I took that deal! The brackets are still on the bars but there are no mounting bolts or clips for mounting to the truck. Can anyone direct me to where I can purchase the correct bolts and clips? Thanks for the help!

Has anyone installed the 84164549 GM steps?  How are they holding up.  I installed a set of the N-fab hoops on my 2014 and wasn't happy with the durability of the finish on them.

Installed the Go Rhino RB20's.

I have the same graphite colored Z71 Silverado, those Rhino's look good on there.

 

How have these held up for those that have these? I live in IL, so snow and salt will be a concern, are these powder coated so they don't rust? How good are these for providing protection against those clowns that swing their door open leaving a dent on your side?

 

What is the difference between the Rhino Black Dominator D6 and Rhino RB20?

So far they're great.  I had the RB10's and had the coating flake off so I went with the non rhino coat this time around.  Glad I did, yes they are powder coated.  As far as door protection, I think that all depends on the height of the car next to you.  Seems like there is some protection.  Here is a few pics from down the side of my truck.

That is great, thanks for the pics. I'm looking at these and the Dominator D6, both look really good.

 

I primarily need these for my wife and son, they have a tough time getting in. Myself and my other kids are no problem since we are taller. LOL!

I'm in the saem boat, my wife and our youngest have trouble.  I really like the no running board look, but I had to get something and to me these are the best looking ones besides Amp.

I went with the DeeZee NXT boards since I live in the rust belt. They are powdercoated aluminum so they’re light weight and rust is only an issue on the mounting brackets. They’ve been thru 2 winters so far and the coating is holding up great. I did repaint the brackets last year because they were starting to get a little rusty.

I’ll look at this brand too. Too bad the brackets weren’t totally rust proof on a lot of these kits, it would make things so much nicer.

Local hardware store is where i got mine.

I’ve come across some OEM folding steps off a 2014 suburban and I’m wondering if anyone knows if they will fit a 2014 Sierra crew cab? I figured this would be easier then reading all 103 pages. Thanks in advance

    • We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.
    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
