dude the fact that you installed all of these for a video speaks volumes bro. Deserves a like

I would choose the second option. They for the most part will never fail since they are fixed in place, less moving parts. I also feel they add to the look of the truck. The AMP's are real nice high tech option but seem more suited for a luxury type vehicle. I would be quite bothered if I bought them and they failed in the middle of winter due to ice/snow/salt/freezing temps.

You had me till drilling a hole through your truck. 9:40 😂no way😂

Great video, man. You're tonneau cover video was fantastic too. I used both videos to buy my tonneau cover and running boards for my Silverado 1500. It's super helpful that you show the installs and that you provide 3 different options - not too many options, but also not too few. Thanks for all of your help!

Which one are you picking for your truck!? 😎

The delay makes sense! I have the same brand, but mine are a bit older of a model apparently. Mine don't have the delay, which is dumb, because when you close the front door, only to get something from the back seat a second later, the step has to come down and go back twice every time..

I would like the Amp Research steps if they were installed on a truck that I only drive during nice weather. (And cost was no issue...). I have yet to see a review for the Amp steps on a truck that was driven in a winter climate that had to deal with snow, ice and salt. Will the step not operate when snow and ice builds up behind the front wheels? Will it burn up the motor if the step can not unfold all the way or will is strip out the gear, or will they not work at all? I would be upset if I paid $1500 to $1800 for a step I couldn’t use. Just my 2 cents.

best video out there appreciate the time you took for this!!!! like and

Excellent upload. Looking for options for my GX460 as the stock boards suck!

[bouncertime]

I have the same problem as you, a short better half. Those power steps are great, but we’re too pricey when I bought my Colorado. I’ve been running the Westin HDX drop nerf bars for 4 years now and they have held up great.

Thank you Sir for your time and effort. When AMP charges you 1500.00 bucks plus tax and they want you to mount their module with zip ties? Zip ties. Who on their design team said yea this is a great idea. Even worse someone had to approve it. You did an excellent job with this video. New subscriber.

10:52 whered they go?!?! Oh wait there they are!

[xavierjohnson]

Thank you! I went ahead and replaced the running boards on my ram 1500. Afterwards I changed the battery and have a constant message that says “power side steps unavailable.” The message goes on and off. Have you experienced this? Any recommendations for this message to be cleared?

[crunklescrunkles]

Love this guy!! Great videos bro 👌
What size wheels and tires do you have on the Silverado? Also, what the heck is going on at your neighbors house?? Hope Jackson is doing well buddy. I need skme Amp research power boards for my 2021 Ram. Thanks again for the info!!

[markzimmermann]

Would these running boards fit both a 4 door Silverado and a crew cab Silverado? I have a 4 door .

[mrmusclecarsuspect]

Great video definitely going for the power steps!!

[Eltepehuaje]

Thanks for the video gracias por enseñar genial 👍

[scottdonahue]

Great video, bro... what did you use to tint your headlights? I have a 2017 2500 midnight edition and wanna smoke my headlights without using a rattle can

I live in the south so I would choose the amp research, motorized step bars. If however, you live in the salt belt, I would avoid that option entirely and go with the middle one.
