Had my tailgate stolen off my '06 F250 a couple of weeks ago while my truck was parked in front of my house. The body shop says insurance insists on replacing it with a used gate. The shop called me this morning to say they found a used gate for me off an F150. Their supplier insists the F150 gate is the same as an F-250 . . . . is this true?

Also . . . after reading up on the forums, I will definitely do the hose clamp mod and lock it in the future.

Thanks

Mark
