Running board brackets
I've got a chance to score a pair of 2017 Running Boards. I need to source mounting brackets as my OEM boards are long gone. Researching here I've learned Westin was manufacturer of the originals. Found these:
From what I can tell these should work. Or should I be looking for 2016 Super Duty Brackets? I like the way they mount for a lower step.
Or would this be a better set?

I like the way yours look. That's the way I'd like mine to sit. Gonna go with the Super Duty brackets. The steps have brackets but they are from a 2017.

I don't have an actual measurement. I'd say they about 2-3" below stock excursion height. Biggest advantage IMO is that these steps create a gap between the running board and the body panel. This helps in keeping those rocker panels and door bottom edges cleaner. This picture might give you a better idea.
