Think I paid 1060 from Amazon with prime shipping with plug and play.

 

Been awhile since I scoured the interwebs on them. That's a good deal.

You can go on camelcamelcamel.com and put in a target price and it will alert you when the price gets there. It will also show you the price over time.

Assuming you are installing yourself, hit me up if you have any questions. Time consuming but not that difficult an install.

Just FYI for others interested in the Amps:

 

I got mine from ourdealsrock.net. At the time I bought mine they had the best price (just under $1100 shipped for boards, plug and play, and the optional OBDII pass-through). I applied for the $100 rebate from Lund and my rebate was approved and processed quickly so they must be an approved seller. And the folks at ODR.net were super helpful when I was figuring out what to order. Also, the Tech Support at Amp is absolutely awesome -- just call them if you have any questions!

Could someone who has the OEM 6" oval style steps (mine are the new ones that are actually rectangular, but they still call them oval) take a look underneath the step, and help me understand how to attach the step to the brackets? Mine came in yesterday, and I've spent today trying to figure this out.

 

There were no instructions with them, and the only installation instructions I have found online are not exactly helpful.

I have a question for you AMP guys. I stopped by the truck shop today ready to order a set of AMPs but the owner almost talked me out of them. He said on a truck that is only leveled the AMPs really drop down too far, almost hitting the curb. I've seen plenty of them online and never thought they looked that low. So you AMP guys.. are most of you running them on lifted trucks? Or a lot higher than my 2.5" level? I would appreciate any input. Thanks

Have mine on stock ride height truck and have never hit a curb in over 2 years of use. Close, but never hit. They are the perfect step height for me, my wife (who is 5' high) and my 87 year old parents. The GM running boards / steps were always too high.

Same here. Factory 2015 Z71 with no lift or lower, stock wheels, etc.

 

Also, I asked Amp about them hitting the curb. If they would they stop as soon as they contact the curb so you don't damage anything. When you close the door they retract again and reset themselves.

I have seen the crew cab steps being interchangeable. Can't speak to the double / extended cab.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
