the pics don't do 'em justice. the nicest running boards I had ever seen. absolutely beautiful shape, quality, fit, and function

they were sold over GM parts counter as a GM accessory in '01/'02

I tracked every lead...I liked 'em that much. No good.
Check this out.

breseechevrolet.com go to the accessory store / chev / ext cab / exterior items / down to assist steps............. are these the same item? appear to be a GM item.

I'm liking the new perk that allows for viewing my entire post so fragmentally quoted by RaggedEdge.

click the blue arrow in the quote. Nice new feature!

Not fragmented, the term would be selectively edited.

I did find something very close to the ones I had in the aftermarket. I'll see if I can dig up the vendor. Pay particular attention to how the ones on my GMC come down at the wheelwell into a molded section that then flows/rolls back into what you more commonly see as the rest of the board...

the back end finished/shaped nicely too. Like I said I beat the bushes to find them. They were unique. They were unlike anything else in a 'glass board I had seen or have seen since.

Look fairly close though. I'm thinking of some sort of step/ running boards for the new truck, just not real hot on the GM chrome bar set up.

you can see where the vendor at the time embossed GM in the front of the board. You can't see in this pic the every-other chrome topped rib on the tread...that looked really nice

I considered boards again for the '06, but I had the GM chrome over stainless bars that I bought new @ half price off ebay and took off the '04.5 when I traded it. They went through a couple winters on the last truck but are still like new, really good quality bars. I cleaned the chrome up with 00 steel wool and dish soap lube then rinse before I put them on the '06. Not a chip, flake, or rust spot on them.
