Re: If you had to buy an aftermarket tailgate .... ?
Well, I did buy an aftermarket tailgate. I'm one of those who doesn't really believe there is that much difference, and you're going to work whatever you wind up with...
I got mine at Southern Kentucky Classics in Bowling Green. They are close. They advertise theirs as "same gauge steel" as factory. I don't know if that's actually true or not, but it fits very nicely.
I did use an old rusty factory tail gate for the panel to fill the outer hole for the relocation of the handle kit. Was more than a little tight getting everything hooked up, but was able to do it. Special thanks to instructions and ideas found right here on this website on "how-to" for this modification.
I like it anyway...
