Step-sill Protection


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello guys, I was poking around the GM Accessories page the other day and saw they have Step-Sill Protectors...an entire set for my 'rado was $23...my sills had a couple small scratches on them from my people getting in and out...no more...check them out :cheers:. Took me about 10 minutes to put them on with the washing and preparation time. If you want great protection for your sill area, go grab a set from your dealer, great value! :crackup: ...later, :seeya::crackup::cheers:

Yep, been using those on every truck I've owned since '91.

 

 

 

I would have bought them earlier but they were not on the GMA website until recently (yet the service guy showed me a booklet with them that I had not seen)...I never asked the parts manager about them...assumed ( :crackup: ) if they were not listed online they were not available...at least I have them now, glad I do, later, :cheers::crackup::cheers:

Yep, I got some of those about 2 months ago for the 04 HD. I also got an OBS underhood light--the one that has the cord/reel. I have used it once allready.

GUYS................AutoVent Shade also makes those step sheilds.

Most big box parts stores sell them.

 

I had/have them on my 97/01/04s and my dads S-10....................geo

I put a set on my truck last weekend, they are nice, although I think they could use a little more double-sided tape to hold them on. Still worth the money in my opinion however.

I agree and was thinking the same thing when I was putting mine on...but they are not going to come off, that is for sure, just have to press down quite a bit...later, :crackup::crackup::cheers:

The GM Accessory ones are the same as the Autoventshade ones. I've always used the Autoventshade ones. I bought a set for my Dad's crew cab at Advance Auto for $17 a set.

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
