Turnburn720 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I'm sure this has been covered before/is just a dumb question, but I can't find the answer here. Are the tailgates on a 1983 f150 different than the ones on a 1983 f250? Found a clean parts donor near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Lewis Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 No difference that year. Right. The tailgates for a an F100 were the same as for an F350 - within a given year. The difference is that the 1980 - 82 tailgate had metal straps to hold it on and the 1983 - 86 had cables. That's explained here: Documentation/Exterior/Beds & Tailgates and then the Tailgates tab and the Changing Tailgates tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
