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

What price are you guys getting for the new plug and play version?? GM-Truck coupons flying around anywhere out there for them? :)

 

Edit: For the Amp version of the steps.

I was quoted $1400 installed for the plug and play AMP's at Chux Trux in Kansas City.

Just wondering....as I am considering a swap to the AMP powersteps.

 

The OEM running boards/side steps on the 14' (and likely other years) have 4-braces holding each step in place on either side which provides a solid foundation for both driver and any passengers.. The AMP power steps have 2 per side. From experienced owners/users, have you found the Powersteps to be as strong in terms of weight bearing as the OEM 4-brace styles?

 

As many, I like the look and the functionality of the Powerstep but find myself a bit concerned that they may not offer the strength of oem style.

I want them because they clean the look of the truck and one less thing to hang up when I'm driving across a pasture or road on our land, a coworker has them on his F-150 and they seem sturdy enough and he's not a small guy.

I love mine also, just keep up on the maintenance.

Do you mean the Power Steps? What maintenance is required?

I'm in the same boat as you as far as waiting for the harness module. I just called autoanything and spoke to Dasan at ext 7135 (Great guy btw) and he put in a special order for the harness for me since they dont carry it just yet. Price is better than i have seen as well at $115.50 out the door. Should be here in a week or two.

So I called and talked to Dasan and he quoted me $150, not sure why the price would be different???

I'm not sure. Maybe they went up in the price and I just got lucky (again lol)?

 

I just opened the box (it's been sealed since I haven't had time to install them) and I received a wiring harness labeled "plug and play conversion kit for 75154-01a". It has an odb2 port plug with it so I assume it's the right one.

 

I know when I purchased every other company had the harnesses listed at $150 so they may have slipped up and gave it to me cheaper than they should have and now they are pricing them in line with the other companies.

 

Edit:

Here are a couple pictures of what i received.

thanks for the pics, for a minute I was worried they may have accidentally sold you the multiport OBD2 cable instead of the actual plug and play kit. Now that I have the p/n I'll run some searches to find a better price since Dasan couldn't repeat on that price

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing.

      Tranmission stays in Low

      get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      This is sort of my point, salvage yards aren't overflowing with all these 'poorly' maintained trucks - excellent/good/servicable condition otherwise, salvaged only as a result of a bad engine from poor oil change regiment.    In my area, there are no 2007 to newer gm trucks/suvs in any salvage yards. A few are in the 'recyclers' with very obvious reasons for being there - wrecked.

      Stabilitrak conversion to Z71

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Stabilitrack was a stability control, traction control system, that functioned independently from the transfer case.   Z-71 has nothing to do with the transfer case or differential.   If it does have an AWD system, my memory recalls this being specific to the Denali trim, converting won't be as simple as swapping out mechanical parts like differentials and transfer cases. It will require reprogramming at a minimum. Long story short, not likely worth it.   Pulling a fuse, may disable the AWD system, it might also prevent any other transfer case functions.   However, the AWD case was generally based on the same transfer case you refer to in the 2006 Suburban. If it still has a 4-High and 4-Low where the transfer case locks and splits power 50-50 front to rear, what are you gaining by changing anything? A true-rear wheel drive only, what good will that serve? Not enough to go through the trouble of changing out all the parts.    Generally, all the factory systems will handle a 33" tire and re-gearing. Probably a 35" tire too, if you aren't driving like a caveman. If 35" tires are in the plan...   If you do plan on driving like a caveman or are fully committed to 35" tires, an entire re-think of the build is probably in order. Starting with square one, an IFS front end isn't going to be the best starting point for 35's and caveman driving.

      Oil Consumption

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      1/2 qt over full ain`t gonna hurt $h!t. Most times, a whole qt won`t either. Most have windage trays now. As long as the crank isn`t slapping itself in the oil, it`s not the end of the world.   We used to overfill 1 qt at the track, at race time. Better to have it over full than having the pan sucked dry at 6500 rpm`s.
