[QUOTE="91Eunos, post: 1421438, member: 29616"] My truck did not come with it and my odyssey to get one is detailed in my build thread (on phone but can search for it tonight)... bottom line: you can NOT add it later unless you perform major surgery on the tailgate; cheaper to purchase a new one and it will cost a lot more than $700 non-step tailgate is about 1/2 the weight of the one with the step and does not have the torsion rod/spring to assist lifting. Each has a unique attachment point on the left/driver side of the bed for this reason. buy the one you want...and what works for YOUR needs. Cheaper to get it straight from the factory. edit: found it: [URL]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/swapping-tailgates-to-flex-step.64415/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
