Review: Look great, work great. Instructions are okay but not great. - Very high quality, operate totally smooth. What you should expect for spending that much money. Overall, the install wasn't hard but took longer than I thought. If you do it here are a few thoughts/recommendations: 1. They tell you to install the step rails on to the hinges right away - next time I would wait until the end as they make getting under the truck to run the wires and install the lights much harder. 2. They talk about snaking the two wiring harnesses down the passenger and driver side wheel wells. To do the job right you need to pull the front tires and the inner fender wells - they aren't hard to take out and make it super easy to route the wires the right way. 3. To drill the holes for the lights - start with a 1/8" drill bit then use a step drill to enlarge the hole to the correct size. Other reviewers have complained that the rails hit the truck when raised. I didn't have that problem at all on a 2021 Sierra 1500.
Review: Excellent quality and impressive performance - Installed on a 2022 Silverado Z71 CrewCab. The install process is what you make of it. I took my time with routing the harness for a OEM look under the hood. They work very well. I like how each side works independently to the other. If a drivers side door, either front or rear is open, then only the drivers side step will extend. Same goes for the passenger side. The operation is very fast and smooth. Worth the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: When will this item be available to order?**
A: In stock now

**Q: Does it come with the obd ll connector or do I have to buy it separate?**
A: All Plug-N-Play units (76 series) come with the OBD II connector specific to that model of truck, but if you need to keep that port open for a tuner or any other device to use that port then you need the pass through harness which is part #76404-01A and this does not come with the unit.

**Q: Just installed mine but when I open the door they go up  and when I close the door they come down is there anyway to fix that**
A: Try to reset it, disconnect it for a couple of minutes with your doors closed, if that don't work,  you may have to swap the motors wires, either cut and swap or pluck them of the harness and swap them.

**Q: How far do they drop down?**
A: Hi, 



Thank you for contacting us! 76254-01A will have a 6 inch drop.



Thank you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth it!
*by R***N on March 15, 2025*

Very nice upgrade. I would suggest having a 3-6” lift on most trucks in order to need this particular step. Cheaper here than ordering directly. Clean slim look. Plug n play is worth the extra cost. After a few months Ive noticed the steps are incredibly loud inside and outside of my truck. The motor itself and the thud when closed. Much louder than expected
