I will get some after I make the final adjustments and get all the wiring done.
I like! I am going to have to do this with a shorter version. Just use the motor hinge and a short step to get around the saddle tanks.
So it is now only a 24 1/2" to the top of the step.
It is 38" to the door sill plate.
And 52" to the top of the seat cushion
This made a huge difference on getting in and out of my K5
This will save the edge of the seat cushion from me having to jump to get in and out.
And my knees and back thank me too.

Hard to believe it got my K5 34 years ago today.
more new parts.
Finally going to try to fix the leak between the trans and the transfer case.
New tie rod and spring bushings
Be careful on the T-case adaptor gaskets, I've bought a figure 8 gasket that was too thin before and there was a gap because one side has a pilot diameter sticking out into a groove and its too deep if you don't have a thick enough gasket. I got the correct one from Stephen at ORD. He said people have broked off the ears before on the adaptor. I am not saying yours is wrong, I just figured better safe than sorry.
I got all those parts from ORD. So hopefully they are all the right ones.
Yes you should be good. I bought the bad one locally at the time, Stephen sent me the correct one, they were well aware of the issue.
Thanks I hope so.
I have a few 1986 K5 dealer brochures I found. Would you like them?
Sure let me know what you want for them or one
Nothing, just PM me your info and I will send you 2 of them.

what's the part number & or link for the powersteps you ordered? their search feature on their website seems to only go back to 2007.
thanks in advance.
They are for a 2016 Chevy 1500
