Has anyone tried using a bed extender with their multipro tailgate?  I know the extender is built in to the gate, but I am looking for something to keep the groceries in one place when the gate is closed.  The AMP ones all say "Excl multipro…"  I feel like they should work, but would like to confirm this before I buy one. Thanks in advance.

I installed an Amp Research Bed Extender on my 2020 GMC 2500HD Duramax AT4 today and it has the MultiPro tailgate.  It installed just fine with the MultiPro Tailgate, no issues. 

Amp Research support told me it wouldn't work, and explained that they were worried about drilling into the carbon-fiber bed.  I don't have the CarbonPro edition (I think that only comes on 1500 trucks).

Anyways, I had the Amp Bed Extender on my '15 2500HD too and loved it.

Hope this helps.

Any updates on this? Had an AMP bed extender in our 2020 TB and loved it. Getting a 22 with multi flex. Hoping it will work in that as well.

Put my AMP bed extender from my 2018 Denali onto my At\4 with Milti-pro gate (not carbon bed) and installed and works exactly as it should.  No problems at all.

Not all short box 1500's are carbonpro.

Carbon pro is not available on standard bed or long bed 1500s'.

 

Multipro does not require carbonpro.

I also got the AMP RESEARCH bed extender for my 2020 Sierra Denali with Multipro.  They make three different types.  Not sure if all work with the Multipro tailgate but I can confirm the AMP RESEARCH BEDXTENDER HD SPORT works fine

I think so.  It's been a while since I was researching but I do recall hearing something like that.  My 2020 does have the bar.  If I recall correctly, that's what caused me to get the HD Sport instead of the HD Max.  Can't say I miss that little bit of space gained with the HD Max.

Just installed the HD max today. Was going to take the grab bar off but made the install and alignment of my soft tri fold cover easier so I left it on. No issues with clearance but you obviously can’t use the bar with the extender in. I will probably never use the bar so I don’t care, but that must be why they list it as not being compatible with multipro/multiflex.

I know this is an older post but was wondering if anyone could provide pics of their bed extender with the "old man" bar installed. I contacted AMP Research and they said there would be clearance issues. I also have a Perragon cover and the bed rails extend 3.5" beyond the truck bed wall. I wonder if I will run into issue with clearance as well.

It fits but you can’t unclip and put the handle up with the bed extender folded to the inside of the bed.

      Post your UOA, (used oil analysis) here

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Here's the second UOA on my 22 Wrangler with the Ecodiesel. This has 5k miles on AMSOIL Signature Series DEO 5w-40. The first one was dealer installed oil, no clue what it was, the second is what AMSOIL recommended, European FS 5w-40, Most of the Ecodiesel world is showing great results using the European MS 5w-40, I figured I would see how the DEO works. This is using an Ecoguard oil filter. It's my understanding this engine likes to shed aluminum.  We will see. So far I don't think this is too bad.

      Disable DRL's

      By revmanii · Posted

      I'm surprised nobody seems to offer a solution like the start/stop device I put in my new truck. Remembers my setting when shutdown. And while it still starts up in start/stop, it stores/evaluates what mode it was in when shut down and will change it whithin a second or 2 of startup. It'd be nice to have something like that for the DRLs.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      I will be doing that for sure, but I need to solve who has/ where I can find a bidirectional scan tool that will support OBD 1.5. I'm kicking myself because I ebay'ed a Snap On MT2500 that I didn't think I'd ever need anymore. D'oh!! I'd rather not buy another, so I'll contact a few local shops to see if they have one and how much they'd want to do the procedure. I'd rather have the ability to do it myself... I wish there was a modern tool that could do it all, but I'd have no idea what to buy.   The theory with the pulled timing is that it mimics a rich condition. The delayed spark causes incomplete burn and the O2 sensor picks up low oxygen levels. That's interpreted as a rich condition so the PCM pulls fuel and that shows up in the deeply negative fuel trims.

      An ultra wealthy man had the most beautiful daughter. But, there was a problem. Everything she touched would melt in her hands. No matter what, Metal, Wood, Stone. Anything she touched would melt. She could not feed herself. Because of this, men were afraid of her. Nobody would dare marry her. Her father was despaired. What could he do to help his daughter? He consulted doctors, scientists and anybody who could solve this problem. Finally one of them said, "If your daughter touches one thing that does not melt in her hands, she will be cured." He was overjoyed and came up with a plan. The next day, he held a competition. Any man who could bring his daughter an object that would not melt in her hands would be given billions of dollars to marry her. Three extremely intelligent and handsome young men took up the challenge. The first brought a very heavy steel rod, But alas, when the she touched it, it completely melted in a matter of seconds. He sadly went away. The second brought a beautiful diamond, knowing diamonds were one of the hardest substance in the world and would not melt. But alas, once she held it in her hand, it melted. He too was sent away disappointed. So now, there was one left He was very nervous & sweating. He approached the daughter & said, “put your hand in my pants pocket and feel what is in there." She did exactly what he asked. She felt something very hard. She held it in her hand, squeezing it as hard as she could. It did not melt & remained extremely hard. Her father was overjoyed. Everybody was overjoyed. She was finally cured. Nothing never, ever melted in her hand again. They married and they both lived happily ever after, raising a wonderful family. Question: What was in the the groom’s pants pocket??? Answer below ↓ M&Ms of course! They melt in your mouth, not in your hand. What on earth were you thinking?
