Tailgate handle problems
Hi
When i get the truck the handle wasn't in the right position, today i was painting my taillights so i disarm the tailgate panel to fix this, but i found that the handle is to deep for the metal sheet that hold's it in place, and there is no way this handle can correctly fit.
I don't know what to think maybe the previews owner change it when he paint it and put a wrong one, is there another truck that use this kind of handle??
This are the pictures of how the handle is:

just looked at my dads chevy and my ford and I can tell you that your latch is exactly like my ford. I'm not sure what the previous owner might have done but is it a possibility that he changed tailgate. If you post pics of the whole tailgate I'll let you know if its any different than mine. Best of luck

tailgate seems to be stock and now I can't think of anything else. could be the right handle just from a different year? so its a thicker handle than the 05 tailgate?
