Junk yard.

 

I'd like to know the same thing. Broke mine back in March. Every time I am on the verge of buying it, it ticks me off how much it costs and I don't buy it. Compare it to the price of the non step full width tailgate piece...$57. Go figure.

 

I ended up buying one through Rock Auto. It was $47.99 plus $26 shipping. Shipping seemed a little excessive, but still much cheaper than other options. I will let you know how it looks when it comes in next week.

 

Be aware that some dealers mark up the MSRP, some more than others.

And, be aware that there's a Ford dealer that sells parts on the internet at cost + 10%.

If y'all have the part number, I'll list the MSRP, dealer net cost and discount price.

 

Thanks guys..keep us in the loop ..thats a good price for it

 

Thanks

cant find it on Rock auto

 

Here is the part number I am seeing.

8C3Z-9940602-EA

 

Part number on Rock Auto is FO1904112

It is listed under FORD>2012>F-350 SUPER DUTY>6.7L V8 DIESEL Turbocharged>Body>Tailgate Seal.

 

Thanks!!!!!!

 

now that will fit the tailgate with drop step on an 08 ??? just making sure before I buy it/

 

I would say...probably. I'm not 100% sure, but I would think so. Probably a quick call to a Ford dealer and you could find out if the molding fits 08-16.

 

I got my RockAuto molding piece in the mail yesterday. Initial thoughts...I'm sending it back. The molding itself is not symmetrical on both sides where it rests up against the outside of the tailgate. It also does not have the factory velvet? like lining that is between the molding and the tailgate. I figure that is going to rub the paint and cause issues.

I should have probably just ordered the Ford piece.

 

actually found it on Amazon for $70 bucks..brand new and perfect
