08 Tailgate

So I REALLY like the new tailgate with the built in step, but I can't afford a new truck as my 06 f-250 is only 5 months old. So this is my question.

Can the 06 f-250 tailgate be replaced by the 08 tailgate with the step, without modification? Is it just remove and replace or would I need to get a bunch of custom work done to my truck?

I have a bad back, and I am in and out of the back of my truck 20 times a day, this tailgate step would be a lifesaver.

Ouch. I don't mean to flame you , but that could have been said a little less bluntly given how new Chevy Convert is to the forum.
