I don't know either, but I'm watching the same video you are, and the man (who looks to be 200lbs - way less than the 650lbs max they indicate) is causing them to flex substantially.  Probably the mounts or the mounting points (body sheetmetal?) or both.  Either way, it's moot to me because they're as ugly as homemade sin!

it is most definitely a lot of flex. Some is good, but that is excessive.

Whos running Ionic and whos running Raptor wheel to wheel steps/bars? Which is a better more reliable/durable brand?

My Amps have ZERO flex.  

Mine don't have any flex either and I have the Crew ones (longer than the Double-cab) ....

I’m looking to get some running boards for my 14 Silverado. I like the ones that hug tight to the truck and don’t stick out very far. I’m pretty sure I want to get some that are stainless with black inserts to compliment the wheels and bumpers, but I do like the all black boards as well. Any recommendations ? - (Sorry about the rotated picture, not sure why it did that)

I had the nfab round black ones on my '15, liked how the hugged the bottom of the truck and didnt hang down like some of the others do.. i may consider them for my new truck, but waiting to lift it before picking some just to make sure they can actually be reached by the kids and wife.

Only issue i had was some rust bubbling up from under the black coating, it was covered under warranty, but the cost of shipping them back to an address that was within a few miles of my home wasnt worth my time or money, they wouldnt allow customers to personally deliver them to the location.  So customer service was great, until that point.

About long did you have them before you noticed the bubbling? I'm personally not a huge fan of running boards, but due to the same reasons (wife and children) they are pretty much required lol.

I want to say had them for about 2 yrs, then i lost the truck in the houston flooding last year, so had to start over.. now i have a 17 crew cab 1500, Z71 LT, already bought the lift, just need the time to install.. then i can shop around for another set.

I like my DeeZee NXT boards. I wanted the GoRhino RB10 boards but everyone was having issues with the coating peeling. 

They are adjustable in-out 1” so with them slid in they are flush with the stock tires. They are powdercoated aluminum so rust isn’t an issue. I added fillers between the boards and rockers to hide the gap and made some flaps at the front to protect the front doors from rock chips. I’ve had them over a year and they still look like new even after all of the road salt this winter.

Order a set of Go Rhino RB20 over the weekend.  I'll post pics later this week once I install them.

Anyone have a set of the black tube steps (round or square) they would like to trade? I have the round chrome ones and want steps, but not shiny ones.

Since no one wants chrome (don't blame anyone, I don't want chrome either) I painted the factory steps I had in bedliner and put them back on. We'll see how they hold up.

Installed the Go Rhino RB20's.

Long time lurker here, First THANKS for all the knowledge on here.  From a bed cover to a level kit to reverse lights, you guys have taught me a lot. 

 

Who has the best price on AMP Research PowerSteps with the plug n play harness for a 17 Sierra 1500 Crew?  The best price that I've found is on EBay for $1259.XX.   

 

What would a set of the Black nerf bars off a 17 GMC All Terrain Crew be worth?  Excellent Condition on 3217 miles on them.
