Later tailgate fit ??
Do any of you guys know if a later model (87-96) tailgate will fit on the 80 to 86 Styleside bed? I know the beds are REAL simular, but don't know about the gates. I remember the 64 to 66's would take a 67 to 72 gate even though they look a little different. (got one)
Any help appreciated. I'm having a hard time finding a good gate for my 86, but I've found tons of em for 87's and newer. Thanx,

The latches and where it mounts at the bottom are different. If it's possible to change these, it would probably work.
