Hey Kyle, thanks for reaching out!
You're correct that the Bestop TrekStep # BE64UV won't fit with a dual exhaust, and I've sent in a note to have that other page updated to reflect this.
You can potentially use something like the Carr Custom-Fit Side Step # CAR24GR, but you'll have to figure out how to install it because it's designed around installing by the doors.
What is the main reason you're wanting to add a step to your truck? Obviously, it's to be able to reach into the truck, but is there a certain scenario you're thinking of?

Thanks for the response, Jon. I am seeking a convenient way to step up into the bed of my Ram 1500 when loading and unloading camping gear frequently. I have opted to go another route at this time.
