Linex told me they could NOT do the tail gate. If you look at the mouldings you can understand why. It is not the step, but the fold up banister.

If you find someon can do it, please post.

Yes, 99-08, just on the pre 08 trucks you need to change the drivers side mount for the torsion assist in the new tailgates

rollerstud98:

What is the torsion assist? I have a job 2, KR, F-350, long bed, and it's bench pressing at least 75#'s each time. I have the step, handle, camera. Maybe because of the back up camera you cannot get the torsion assist. Do you know? THX,
