RPM has them for the best deal I can find for $1399, problem is they are not in stock. I would have to pay $1500 with another company but they said straight from the manufacturer 6-9 business days. I am having a really hard time though with the $1500 price tag..... Hell, really don’t want to be more than $1250 on these so if anyone else finds any super deals please post!

Discount Bandit has them for $1332. 

Probably not in stock anywhere right now though.

 

A custom truck outfit purchased nearly all stock that was available last month.

I think by January we will see the price hover right around what the "old" body style steps were at $899.

Shoot I don’t know, too risky for me. This is a damn good price though. I know 4 Wheel Parts are dicks about price matching even though they advertise they will, Anyone know who else offers price matching? It’s worth a try to match this bad ass price?

Discount Bandit is a legit website, the only issue is they sometimes are slow to ship as they are just re-sellers from a larger very well known retailer.

 

I purchased a set of AMP power steps for my Wrangler last year, Discount Bandit had them for $819 everywhere else was $1099.

 

The local guy here just received 2 sets yesterday, but  these are already sold. 

He is charging $1199 installed, which I feel is kinda high since they only take 45 minutes to install.

 

The larger retailers should be getting there shipments in a few days.

Ordered my steps last wed got them 3 business days later. Installation was under an hour.

Glad the brackets were twice the size this time but hate that the truck is curved but the steps are flat. Looks weird. I’ll take pics later today.

Good for you installing yourself. Everywhere I call say installation is a solid 4 hours so they are adding $250 to the price and charge you tax on the install which jacks the price up too high. Just gives me the case of the red ass because I want them so bad, but not willing to pay $1900 for them.

      I'm looking at carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand and lumbar fusion.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.

      This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.
