Found part # for the new AT4 high clearance step for RPO code VXW or PDG....GM 84630474. Kind of expensive so I’ll have to wait for a used set.

For those of you have these steps - do you like them?  My wife is 5'7 and she uses the steps to get in.  We had the amp research on my last truck and we both loved those, however, they are ridiculously expensive.  GM accessories  has 25% off right now and my dealer will install for $58.  They will still end up costing $980!  I'd love to hear any opinions before I spend this kind of money.  They do look good.

I've had them for about 4 days now and I like them. My wife is 5'4" and likes the ease of getting into the truck now. They are very non slip. I just gotta remember they are there when getting out as they will snag your pants with the textured coating.

 

I'd say the $58 and buy dinner. It literally took me about 20 mins to install and that was taking my time laying the cardboard on the ground so I didn't scratch them sliding them on the floor.

I have them and like them very much. As said above, install is not hard at all. But for $58 I'd probably have the dealer do it if it was convenient for me.

Has anyone purchased these for their AT4 that has kids, if so can they reach this step ok or would a lower step be best?  My kids are 5 and 7 and they can get into and out of our 2021 Suburban with fold  out running boards with air suspension on highest setting, I should probably measure how far down that step is.  I also have a wife who is 5'1", hoping these steps will work with both.

 

My last concern is that I live on dirt road so wondering how well they will clean off mud, saw one post in here that the area close to truck is hard to clean.

My wife is also 5’1” and she likes them much better than no step. She has no trouble with them.  I have no complaints so far. And my kids have no problems using them - 8 and up. I think they look better than the Amps personally. I like that they’re low clearance. I see a lot of damaged Amps on trucks. Actually my only complaint is that it’s hard to clean behind them when hand washing because they’re so tight to the truck. They clean up fine with a brush. The texture will tear up a sponge.

Recently purchased a 2021 AT4 HD.  It came with the high clearance steps.  I like them but they are a little high.  Does anyone know if someone sells brackets or adapters that will lower them an inch or two?  I had AMP retractable steps on my last truck and I did like the lower steps.  Don't know if I will swap them out.

Does anyone know why these do not fit 2020 models? Seems strange to me. I have found them on a few GM parts sites, but these sites list them as incompatible with a 2020 2500 AT4. When I tried to source them from the dealer they could not find them as an option. But i swear when went through the process of building the truck online in 2020 it showed them as an option. If they really are incompatible, does anyone know how difficult it would be to make them fit if even possible?! Much thanks!

I've seen this question a few times, anyone have an answer? I'd really like to order a set of these, but would hate to drop the $$ if they don't fit or need to be modified to fit. I can't imagine anything changed from 2020 to 2021, but who knows with automakers these days...

    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
