'94 F-150 tailgate compatability

Hey all...I bought a '94 F-150 that didn't have a tailgate. I am trying to locate one for it, but need to know what models and years are compatible with the '94 F-150 for tailgates...any help is appreciated.

thanks
Kevin

Mid 70's to mid 80's doesn't work? I sorta kinda remember seeing those mounted up. Im not 100% sure, though. I do remember thinking oh,cool Ford kept them the same all through the years.

87-96 have bear claw latches (similar to door latches) to hold the gate closed. Older ones have the wedge-style. An older gate might slot in at the bottom, but it won't close.
