So I just found the ones I purchased back on Amazon. $159. Tyger Auto TG-RS2C40038 RISER is the title of them.

I ordered the Tyger Star Armor that I referenced and put them on today. Very heavy duty and the finish and fitment is great. 111 pounds shipping weight lol. I will get some pics up tomorrow.

Tires and wheels go on some time next week. I will clean it up and take some good pics.

My 16 came with the 4 inch round gm tube steps the bend in behind the front tire. After 8 months the paint is riddled with rock chips. I have mudflaps on and hardly ever leave the pavement. This is a poor design by gm. The 6 inch rectangular steps have a plastic end cap to absorb the impact. The 4 inch round ones have nothing but exposed paint. A waste of $600. The attached picture has a little dirt but most of the spots are paint chips

Appreciate it man. Paid 289 on eBay straight from Tyger. Pretty good deal I think. Edited by CWilliams

Did those attach by the body mounts or the rocker panels? They look nice. About how long was the total install time?

Each bracket mounts through the pinch weld and into the rocker panels, just like the oem steps. Took me about 1.5 hrs. to install. Definitely would have been faster with some help.

I had a piece of leftover plastic so I decided to make a couple pieces to go from the fenders to my steps to try to prevent rock chips in my doors and to keep the steps clean. I got the idea from these pieces made for Raptor steps.

I'm not sure yet if I like them, but it beats having mud flaps hanging down.

Couple more pics of different view with the ebay hooped bars. So far still working great and longer have people sliding off the seats and pinching off the leather.

    • 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.
