 Tommie,
 
 At some point they changed the tailgate to include a little
 spoiler at the top.  So change's have been made over the
 year's, but what else changed I don't know.
 
 A quick call to the Dealer part's dept. might help, but
 best to find one that say's will fit, imo.

 Tommie,
 
 Like you, I like to save money every chance I get.
 
 Let us know how you come out and the bed that you decide to
 get if it fit's Perfect or not.
 
 I've been down this road on other project's and when
 possible have found in the long run to make sure part's fit
 perfect beforehand, rather than trying to Rig a part to
 fit.
 
 Good Luck and let us know how it is going.

 |  is being delivered Wednesday.. wound up paying 350.00 for
 it.. my bed is in such bad shape would be too much work to
 repair it and I didn't pay but 2k for the truck so I could
 not see myself putting 1500 into a bed.. the truck is a
 2011 and had 69k miles on it..had a blown head gasket and
 they let water sit in the cylinders for 2 years.. I wound
 up putting a used engine I bought for 400 in it and had the
 head reworked .. Turned out to run really good so now
 working on the body.. was a work truck so they beat it up
 pretty good. after the bed just a few smaller dents in the
 doors and cab the painting it.. anyhow.. will let you know
