Thanks Chuck! We're keeping the pen inked and we will keep writing. We've enjoyed meeting you on this journey.

I have almost identical truck. The tailgate is heavy so I find it’s a two person job to remove and install. Also you can’t lower tailgate if the wiring harness is disconnected if you have the automatic tailgate feature (make sure tailgate is lowered before disconnecting wiring). Thanks great video!

I always remove my tailgate when I go pick up one tone pallets of wood pellets for the heating season. It makes it easier for the fork lift driver at Tractor Supply to load them. I haven't had to remove it yet on my 2021 F350, now I know. Thanks brother!

I just paid (10/26/23) 58200 for an XL 250 super cab long box 4x4, 7.3, STX. Crazy to think two years ago for that price I could’ve had a Lariat!!! 😢

Yeah. The tailgate comes off pretty easy. There sure was some beauty in the simplicity of the old trucks. Thanks shovelhead8

Removing the tailgate itself is pretty simple. The hard part is fishing that wiring harness up through that tiny hole that Ford has Provided is a pain in the a ass. Mine has 4 plugs of different sizes that makes this not very fun😩

Hello do you know by any chance which connector is for what? I also have the same 12 pin and 6 pin but i dont know which is used for what. Is 12pin for camera? I have a 2019 f350 lariat btw. Hope to hear back from ya. Thanks

I'm not sure what each connection is. I unplug both to get tailgate off. Then put 2 caps over them when unplugged to keep debris out. I pull tailgate off a few times a year for loading my truck camper. I wish there was a better snap or latching mechanism for the plugs
