19-26 RAM 1500 5th Gen QUAD CAB OEM LEFT & RIGHT SIDE STEP RUNNING BOARD Steps

2019–2022 RAM 1500 5th Gen Quad Cab OEM Left and Right Side Step Running Boards

Finding a correct OEM running board set for a 5th Gen RAM 1500 Quad Cab is more specific than most buyers initially expect. The board length, the bracket spacing, and the step height are all calibrated for the Quad Cab door configuration. This listing covers a genuine OEM left and right side step set sourced from a verified 5th Gen RAM 1500 Quad Cab donor truck. Both sides are included. At McClain Auto Part, every set is physically in our Cleveland, Ohio warehouse and goes through a hands-on inspection before it ships nationwide.

2019 RAM 1500 running boards in the factory Quad Cab configuration are one of the more consistently requested OEM accessories we handle for this generation. Owners come to us after rust and road salt work through the mounting brackets on a truck that has spent several winters in the north. Others are sourcing boards for a clean used RAM 1500 that arrived without steps. Some are simply replacing a cracked or damaged set on a daily driver where the factory look matters. In each case, a correct OEM Quad Cab set is the starting point that avoids the bracket adjustments and fitment compromises that come with universal aftermarket alternatives.

The 2021 RAM 1500 side steps and 2022 RAM 1500 running board in Quad Cab configuration cover the middle and final years of the 5th Gen production run included in this listing. We confirm production year and cab configuration before every order ships.

Fitment Is the Most Important Part of This Order

Why Quad Cab Running Boards Are Not Interchangeable With Crew Cab Boards

The single most common fitment mistake on RAM 1500 running board orders is mixing up Quad Cab and Crew Cab applications. The two configurations use different door arrangements, and the running boards reflect that.

The Quad Cab has a shorter rear door and a different door sill span than the Crew Cab. As a result, the board length and rear bracket position differ between the two. A Crew Cab board installed on a Quad Cab truck extends too far at the rear. A Quad Cab board on a Crew Cab leaves the rear door step area uncovered. Neither outcome is acceptable on a truck where the running boards are a functional daily-use component.

This set is confirmed Quad Cab length and bracket spacing. If your truck is a Crew Cab, call us before ordering and we advise on current availability for that application.

Why OEM Fits Better Than Universal Aftermarket

Generic running board sets for the RAM 1500 use approximate bracket configurations that get the step close to the factory position but rarely match it exactly. The result is a step that requires shimming or slot adjustments to align, and even after adjustment it frequently sits at a slightly different angle or height than the factory step did.

An OEM set from a matching Quad Cab donor truck uses the exact factory mounting hole pattern and bracket geometry. The step positions at the factory height and angle without modification. For a truck used daily, that difference is noticeable every time someone uses the step.

Factory Appearance on the 5th Gen Platform

The 5th Gen RAM 1500 body has a specific rocker panel profile and door sill line. The OEM running board set follows that profile in a way that round tube nerf bars and flat universal steps do not. For owners who want the truck to look the way it left the factory, or as close to it as possible, the OEM set is the correct choice.

McClain Auto Part carries additional RAM 1500 running board and side step options for the 5th Gen platform depending on current inventory. If you need a different finish, a different step profile, or aftermarket alternatives, call us and we advise on what is currently available.

Fitment and Compatibility

Production Year Coverage

This OEM set covers the 2019 through 2022 5th Gen RAM 1500 Quad Cab production range. Mounting geometry is consistent across this range for Quad Cab applications. Confirm your production year before ordering.

Cab Style Confirmation

Quad Cab only. The board length and bracket spacing on this set are specific to the Quad Cab configuration and will not correctly fit a Crew Cab application. Confirm your cab style before ordering.

VIN Confirmation

Call us with your VIN before placing the order. Your VIN confirms production year, cab configuration, and model in one step, eliminating the most common fitment questions before the set ships.

Shipping and Support

Both boards ship individually wrapped before being placed in outer packaging. Brackets receive separate padding to prevent contact marks during transit.
