Product Description
12-Piece Upper Rocker Kit, 5.5", for the 2001-2006 GMC Sierra (TH41284)
Listed for GMC Sierra pickups from 2001-2006, TH41284 hangs twelve polished stainless steel pieces from the side molding. Each is 5.5" wide, and the placement note is "Spans from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width." The tag on the fitment row reads "2-door, 4-door, Pickup Truck."
Read this first: a matching record
TH41283 is linked to this listing, and side by side the two records don't differ. Same truck, same years, same tag, same twelve pieces, same width and the same note. We can't tell from the catalog which one you should buy. Rather than have you pick at random, call 877-752-3811 before ordering and we'll confirm.
What the tag leaves out
Two door counts appear in one tag, and there's no cab name, no bed length, and no flare note. Those details matter for any rocker kit. Gather them for your truck, take a photo of a full side, and have both handy for the call.
Specs at a glance
- Twelve pieces.
- 5.5" wide, from the molding down.
- The Sierra pieces are made in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel.
- 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, mounted over the existing surface.
That tape, QAA says, will hold the twelve 2001-2006 Sierra strips for a lifetime with no damage to the truck's finish.
Measure the space
The distance from the bottom of your molding to the bottom of each door isn't in the record. Measure it. If it's close to five and a half inches, or less, let us know.
Molding first
Because the top edge rides against the molding, a lifted or missing section will throw off the line. Repair it first. Molding isn't listed among the kit's contents.
Layout
The data has no placement map for the twelve pieces. Sort them with the product photos and write a position on each liner.
Prep work
Wash the lower doors and panels, rinse, and dry. Go over the band with isopropyl alcohol, paying close attention right below the molding where dirt sits. Fix any chips.
On it goes
Tape the pieces in place dry and check the whole side. Then, one piece at a time, peel back a few inches of liner, push the top edge up to the molding, and press along as the liner comes free. A final firm pass seats the tape.
Wrapping up
Swing every door. Look along the top line from both ends of the truck. Hold off washing for a day.
Sierra gap readings
Measure each Sierra piece end from the door gaps and keep the readings consistent.
Working conditions
Dry weather and mild temperatures, or a garage. Warm cold parts before peeling.
Keeping it clean
Wash with mild soap and a soft mitt, dry with a towel, and keep ice scrapers off the polish.
A second pair of hands
Long pieces on a pickup go on more easily with a helper keeping the far end off the paint while you set the top edge.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper Kit
- Unpack all 12 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
