Be careful you don't get a long bed model by mistake. It's bigger but at a glance looks very similar. The width is the giveaway.

Personally I would spend the extra cash and get a repop...Carpenter makes some really accurate tailgates and they are just as heavy as the OEM. To me there's nothing worse than following a nice F100 down the road and looking at a wavy tailgate.
