    The dimensions seem the same so would it be the latch and bolt areas?

    Weld the outer skin from the 94 on your banged up tailgate. Easier then modifying all the other hardware.

    If they are the same dimension.

    My pick up is a 87 so I can compare if the never style 89 and up has changed.
