Hight is ok, the width is what's off. I measured once to see and i think it was like 4 or 5 inches longer. Don't hold me to that exact number, it's been a while.

figured height would be ok, dang I was hoping the width wouldn't be that far off. I measured mine it's 53" I think an my buds f250 2010 tailgate is 64" I believe. so those are pretty far off

a styleside bed truck will take a superduty tailgate because the superduty has a styleside bed will not fit a flareside bed there totally different on shape and tailgate width.
