I am looking for a good quality bed step for my 2019 3500 dually.

I can’t swing the $400 for an OEM one but, I am willing to pay for quality.

Any help will be greatly appreciated
 
I also bought one off Amazon. When I did there was a couple different brands. Can’t remember which one it was but it has held up well so far
 
I would buy it if I didn’t have the factory one. Looks pretty much the same.

I just installed this one recently. Great durability and fitment. I did have to trim the plastic under the bumper, but not an issue. I've bounced on it and step hard on it from the bed. I use it frequently and for under $99 you can't beat it. I didn't want to pay for the OEM and I after using this one, the OEM isn't worth it.

In 2022 when I installed my Amazon (Mitzone) step I had trim the plastic under my bumper too.

It has worked great since installing it in 2022.
 
I ended up buying an OEM one off of a scrap yard. $100 delivered so…

Thanks for the info though,

I hope that works out well for you. I'd be concerned that they wouldn't send the bolts with it. When I installed my OEM step it came with replacement bolts.
I'm sure I've still got the instruction sheets around here somewhere. I'll see if I can find and scan them.

They did NOT send the new bolts BUT, just a heads up, on a 3500 dually, the original bolts are plenty long enough (more than 4 threads still showing on the nutplate side).

A drop of locktite and I’m happy with the results

I don't think it was a length issue. IIRC the new bolts had a higher torque value than the old bolts. It's been a while so I could be wrong. In any event is sounds like you already have it satisfactorily installed so I'll stop looking for the instruction sheet.

Well now you’ve got me thinking.
