Ordered the westin hdx drop steps, costed me 485 Canadian, open up the box and was sent amp power steps for a ram. Will sell the amps locally rebuy the westin steps and profit almost a grand.

RB10s...Anyone remove the goRhino emblem yet? Haven't really taken the time to look but want to remove it

I removed mine. I drilled out the rivets, then I put some painter's tape across the holes from the inside. I bought a can of bed liner, and dropped some in the holes until they were full. You can't tell from 10', looks ok from 5', looks like shit up close. I personally do not like my RB10s. I know I'll be in the minority on that though.

Meh I think of you want/need a step they're are the best option besides AMPs...to each his own though, I absolutely love mine

I'm thinking about building steps like these and ditching my factory 4" chrome tube steps. I want something less bulky and less chrome. I plan to have the steps LineX coated for grip and to hold up to rock chips.

What wheels you got there?

Personally I would rather not have nerf bars at all. But I had to order and install a set cause I found myself sliding off the seat when climbing out . Was worried about wearing the seat out. It also makes it easier for my girlfriend to climb in and out. I spent 349.00$ on a set of ICI magnum RT steps. They weigh like 30-35 lbs a piece, they bolt into the rocker and they are very sturdy, and I haven't seen another truck on the road that has them yet. Been trying to upload a picture but it's not letting me

Been torn between several mods so pulled the trigger on Amp Steps. Ourdealsrock $1100 no tax free shipping just ask them if they will do 1100 out the door. Truck came with oval factory steps and I changed to rectangular factory cause I thought they matched the truck style a little better. In the end I wasn't happy with either so both will be for sale soon.

The ones in the first picture look pretty cool.

A couple more styles I like.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
