Help identifying hitch reciever

I got a "OEM" hitch reciever from eBay. Can anyone tell me if its really for a OEM Ford F150, styleside or flareside?

http://www.lovehatetragedy.net/fte/images/edt02760.jpg

I tried it on my styleside but it doesn't seem to fit. Any help is greatly appriciated. Thanks

I would say that it can't be for the new body style 04-05 since the hitch and bumper mount are all integrated into the same unit.

I just looked at my hitch, factory mounted on my 04 F150. I can say without a doubt that the hitch in the pic will not fit on my truck.

Thanks guys, yeah, I've seen the diagram that the trailer hitch reciever is a streight bar behind the bumper. I think it might be for a flareside, but I'm not sure. Anyone have a flareside can take a look at their hitch reciever?

MX2004 My 04 flairside (STX) has the straight bar that attaches right behind the rear bumper.

Thanks for the help guys. I was told this was for an 04 F150 so I thought I would take a look at the hitches for the F150 Heritage Edition and its a perfect match. That sucks.
