Recommended Straight Nerf Bars for 2019 Ram 1500 Classic Ecodiesel Crew Cab
Question:
Concerned about brackets fitting especially driver and passenger side front bracket. I like straight bars, no curve. Brand isn't important but quality is. Any ideas are welcomed I have included some photos of the mounting points on my truck.

The Westin R5 Nerf Bar # 28-51050 come with custom fit brackets specifically designed for your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic, so these will will install to the existing holes that you've sent pictures in of (thank you for that!). I can see where your concern about the front driver's side mounting space, where you have that black bracket already in place, but the mounting bracket for that specific spot is designed to occupy the two bottom holes so the mounting hardware included in this kit takes that bracket into consideration.
Westin makes a very high quality and durable bar as demonstrated by their lifetime warranty-but they're also good looking too. I really like that these R5 bars come with covers for the brackets that help give them a more factory look. I'll also add that it looks like you've already got the holes drilled on the pinch weld on the frame of your vehicle, so this will be an easy, no drill installation for some added convenience.
I've added a photo that shows the bracket covers I was talking about, in case you hadn't seen how those look, as well as one of our review videos of these bars.
