Default tail gate ?

Do you guys know if there is a diffence between the regular v8 f-150 tail gates to the f-250 super duty body style tail gates as far as fit they look the same to me just wondering if anyone knows if they are not interchangeable. Plus the one I found on a wrecked truck small ding in the tail gate nothing major he wants $200 for it does this sound a little steep or a reasonable price?

I know they look the same, but I have no idea if they are interchangable.

Not sure about an F-150 gate, but I know a newer SD gate works. Car-Part.com is a public listing site from junk/wreck yards by state, may be able to get one cheap there in near perfect shape.

I've seen F-150 tail gates on F-250, but why degrade your SUPER DUTY

Just because a F-150 tailgate fits a F-250 bed, it doesn't mean they are the same
