I need to buy two 2007 F150 tailgates for company work trucks

Does anyone know the year range that will fit a 2007 F150

I have been checking craigslist

Any suggestions for junk yards or other places to check out

Check Craigslist, you'll probably be able to find that ones that were taken off your truck.

These are construction trucks that were damaged not stolen

I found two on Craigslist and waiting on a call back

Currently sitting at Manuels used auto parts in Pasadena. They supposedly have one. I have never been in a place like this and it is an interesting experience

Make sure you specify the "new" 2004. 2004 also had an F150 "Heritage" that was the previous body style.

I picked one up from Manuels. They have a bunch of wrecked cars. It is kind of creepy when you walk by some of them that have the biohazard sticker on the window from the body fluids that were in them.

True, but I believe most yards know that a 2004 is a "new gen" moniker. Anybody with a Heritage always threw the "2004 Heritage" out to battle the normal assumption.

That is one of the nicer junk yards around that area.

Have you also thought about an aftermarket? Something like this:


It may be pretty easy to find on Craigslist.

Ben, who makes that tailgate? I really like it.

That's a husky brand. It does look nice, but I've never had any experience with them myself.

That's a fairly common style, I just googled "aftermarket tailgate" or "gooseneck tailgate"

Lots of illegally acquired parts in this market. I would be careful I bought from to avoid supporting thievery. Junkyard was probably a safe bet, especially if you saw the wrecked unit it came off.

The after market tailgates like the one shown above usually cost new what you would pay for a stolen tailgate on CL. You can get them with the 5th wheel notch or straight. You can buy them online or at any truck shop.
