Look at the captions on the various tailgate pics this seller has for sale.
He has one tailgate that he sez fits 1967/74 (it is not correct for 1973/74).
Another that is the exact same type that he says fits 1967/72 (correct).
He originally said the tailgate refered to in this thread as fitting 1961/63's also. It does not.
Now...he corrected that, but now says 1964/66 F150. No F150's until 1975.
Bottom line: This seller is either mis-informed, and/or clueless.
The problem with a mis-informed seller is, the buyers could also be mis-informed, believe what the ad sez...and end up buying the wrong tailgate.

Reverse rotation: I'm no expert when it comes to swaps...especially inre to 4WD's.
From reading 75F350's posts, it has something to do with what steering linkage/pitman arm is used.
btw: Looking for a tailgate? Check out places that sell campers/camper shells.
When slide-in campers are installled in pickup beds, usually the tailgate has to be removed.
I had a tonneau cover installed on a pickup recently at a place that also sells campers. Out back, there was a HUGE pile of new/used tailgates, mostly from Ford's.
The longer the place has been in business, the better chance one has of finding one for a 1960's truck.

Any of you guys looking to get rid of an "ok" tailgate. The one that came with my truck has been backed into a post. I will buy and pay for shipping if the thing isint rusted out or dented to the gills.
I have tried every salvage yard withing a hundred miles and found nothing. Farmers with trucks rotting away wont sell a decent gate. They wont sell squat.
I am about ready to get the 68 gate from dennis carpenter.

How about a rust free 'gate for a 62 Unibody. There's a 62 Uni on Ebay right now in Reno that's pretty solid, but has an awesome tailgate. No rust in the hinge area like mine. Problem is, it's at one of those collector car places so I'm sure they want a fortune for it. Here's the link:
