That's the page that says it will not fit 2014s...

Yes, I am assuming that chuckl1218 is not looking at the bottom of the page. Great idea, and I have used these in the semi trucks over the years.

Thanks for pointing that out. I read through the page twice snd missed it. Sorry. I stand corrected.

I installed one and love it. Now I have handles all over the truck. Even if you don't use it to help getting in your truck it makes it look complete. I use it with a cell phone mount that way my texts show up where they are visible in large bold size since my link doesn't show texts. Lol

Just to confirm that the gray driver side assist handle part number is 23135699. The gm accessory site for my local dealer doesn't clarify driver side or passenger side so I wanted to be sure.

 

Thanks,

Went to my dealer and the parts guy said they only make it for the passenger side. He ran my num and said that the part number is a valid part but didn't match to my vehicle. Anyone get this part and installed it in a 2014 Silverado LT Z71?

I have it, and it is the correct part for the Driver's side. I have a '14 LT z71, and the the truck comes with one on the passenger's side... So... it makes sense that the one chevy has made available for ordering is not the one that comes standard on the truck. Install is easy as can be and it makes a huge difference.

 

PMattras has the correct information for the Driver's side.

I ordered one of these from my dealer, but apparently GM has put a hold on new orders. No idea why, but I've been waiting 3 weeks now… Can't wait to get it, let alone install it…

i have a WT truck and ordered mine the day i had my truck

it's the same driver handle for all silverado and sierra

 

took 3 min to install and it come with everything to install

 

better look and usefull to get in or out of truck instead prying the steering wheel each time loll

So the dealer I ordered it from didn't include bolts. WTF?

Look close, they are in a plastic bag, and are almost the same color as the trim, IIRC. Not saying they are not there, especially if they opened the box for you.

Thanks - looked again but still nothing in there. Guess this will have to wait until next week.

    • I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps. 
    • Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.
    • 10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O. 
    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
