New??? side steps
These are like the GM ones for the special edition 2006 Hummers, but GM quoted me like 1200 installed. These are $699.00. Still high. I may have a fab shop fab me up somethingh similar w/o the need for new rocker panels.

Re: New??? side steps
Good catch...QPP is a supplier to GM and those are the Limited Edition rocker panels and steps and they have flares similar to the Limited Edition fender flares only 1" wider. QPP fender flares are 2", which is 1" larger than stock, the same as the E&G Classic standard flares ($440-ish unpainted and nearly $850 painted) and the Street Scene/Stillen flares ($300-ish from Stillen) are 2.5" wide. Having a set of Stillen flares I can concur with everyone else on here that they (specifically the second piece on the front - the flare that mounts to the cab and not the hood) fit like AZZZZZ!!! They take some serious tweaking in order to get them in place.
Anybody need a set of never mounted Street Scene flares smoothed and painted black? I may eat these and opt for the OEM fit and finish of the QPP flares.

Re: New??? side steps
I like those limited edition ones, even better than my set of autographed CO ones. I saw a set on a Fusion Orange unit in Steamboat last weekend. Purty cool. I doubt anything new would bolt on to where I would cut the stock ones from.

Re: New??? side steps
I"ve looked at those steps and you don't need the whole thing with the rocker bars. Just the steps. They bolt to the rocker.
As for the flares, if you remove the rocker and install the steps, you won't need the new flares.
Before spending that much money, look at a set installed on a truck and you'll understand what I mean.
Then just buy the steps.

Thanks ken I know what you mean. But, no one just sells the steps besides GM and they want too much. I might call these guys to see if they will break up a set for me.
Paragon-those exhaust steps are great for rock crawling. They give you that extra "boost" . And they add MPG/HP/etc. kind of like those $69 superchargers we all have.

Re: New??? side steps
Trail Duty has several sets. When you call, don't speak to Phil because he has no idea what's going on over there. Ask to speak to the "Boss".

Tried it, heres the response...Which I think is BS!
Hi D,
Thank you for your interest in Quantum Power and Performance!
The side assist steps you reference below do not fit with the stock rockers, therefore we do not offer them separately.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions, and thanks again for your interest!
Regards,
Jayme Mangus

Do you sell just the steps and how much are they?

X2 I looked at a Pacific Blue one at the dealership and I firmly belive I couldget them on there w/ the stock rockers. Phil D what do you think? Do you have these at TrailDuty?

Re: New??? side steps
Looking closely at the LE H2s, it looks as if they not only come with the rocker step and flares with cut-out, but also with the wider flares from this company: http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=18438

I'm close to putting money on them fitting.
I'm going to see agriv8r tomorrow and find out.

Re: New??? side steps
BTW Ken, they WILL fit without rocker panel cutouts. This was discussed a couple months ago here and a dealer replied that he has done it.
