Beds, tailgates, axles, and diesel components — buyer's guide.
Truck beds and tailgates
Measure bed length and verify cab style (standard, extended, crew). Rust along seams is common — inspect in person when possible.
Diesel vs gas components
Engines, turbos, and emissions hardware differ completely between diesel and gas trucks. Never assume interchange without VIN confirmation.
Axles and differentials
Gear ratio, limited-slip options, and towing packages affect compatibility. Provide your VIN and current ratio tag if visible.
Freight and handling
Heavy truck components require freight shipping and lift equipment. Get a shipping quote before you buy.
