Will save you some search time on the forum. Watch out for how they mount. There are many to choose from. But some of the budget low cost ones have poor/weak mounting. What ever you like, make sure they mount securely to your frame with appropriate size bolts. I put Westin on my trucks.

I got the OEM Boards from my dealer for around 500$ for my Quad Cab.. I am 6ft3 225 and they do not flex at all.. The advantage of the Boards in my 4x4 is I do not slid my bi=utt on the seat getting in causing wear in that spot !
These are what I picked up

I have the mopar off-road running boards.

Only caution is to clean the excess paint overspray from all the factory studs. They will mess up the threads on nut.

On my next truck, I'm going to spend the extra money to get the power side steps. I don't like the look of steps but do need their functionality lol

Just got an email from Westin, looks like a bunch of their 2019 stuff just came available

Great. The reason I like Westin, other than the styling, is how they mount to the frame. Very solid. Some of the cheap ones mount to the holes in the pinch weld or come with light weight brackets that give to much.

The Westin 23-1950 wheel to wheel. Amazon has them for $170.56

These fit the '19s? Thanks for the info and advice on them. I need some badly (wife is short, kids are young, etc.) but don't have the funds to go big with the spending. I am 6'2 220.

Ooops Go to Westin and check to see if they will fit the 2019. I believe I looked up for the 2018 2500. But to your point, my neighbor is over 200. The ones he got on line, he had to replace. Cheap brackets bent.
