I own a 2014 Ram 2500 6.4 Hemi. I got codes PO171 and 174. Can anyone help with just what those mean and what needs to be done to correct. Thank you

A web search states bad 02 sensors on both banks, too lean.

No, it means the O2 sensors detected a lean condition not that the sensors are bad. One way that can happen is that there is unmetered air added to the intake air e.g. a leak after the MAF. Another possible cause is the MAF itself reading low but that's less likely.
