Thanks for the pictures. I have a 2018 2500 so sounds like the same fitment will work on mine.
I can't confirm but if you do post up how it works out. It will be nice to be able to confirm if it is the same on a 2500.

Looks great and from above looks exactly like mine on my '22 2500. Glad to hear it's working out.

Although I have the Amp fold down on my 2014 , similar to yours , and as solid as you could ask for , but yes they do cost a bit more . Also have the Amp auto side steps . Wouldn’t own a truck without them . My sons 22 Laramie has the OE auto side steps , and IMO are not as nice a step as the Amp’s . Plus they are pretty slow folding down , and up . No problem with the up , but you wouldn’t want to get in a hurry getting out of the truck , you may not have that step down yet . The Amp’s are a lot faster .

After the recent mishap my father just had with his truck, I would not even consider the auto folding side steps now. The factory fixed side steps saved his truck from extensive damage, the evidence is the black tire rub marks from the moron that tried to pass him and simultaneously ran into the side of him. If the fixed running board step wasn't there he would need new doors in addition to the headlight, front hubcap, emblems, and some cosmetic repairs. His step has a coating of rubber but I think it will scrape off the chrome.
In addition, they stop shopping carts. Even though I park far out, there's always that one cart blowing in the wind.

I can confirm, the same item fits perfectly on a 2018 2500. Went on pretty easily although I had to buy a 21mm socket for my 1/2 drive set.

Awesome! Hope it works for you. We're camping and using it to get into the bed to roll/unroll the Tonneau cover from hooking up the 5er was great. Wish I got it sooner.
