Replacement Tailgate
I have a 2006 F-150 Lariat Supercrew (fleetside) with a damaged tailgate. I've been searching for a replacement, but finding one for the 04-08 body style is a bit of a pain. My question is whether a 97-03 tailgate would fit. They seem to be a lot easier to find.

The box on the 04-08 is a little over 2" deeper, so no, probably not interchangeable.
