Availability of Steel 5th Wheel Style Tailgate for 2015 Ford F-250

Question:

Do they make an after market aluminum gooseneck/5th wheel tailgate that will fit a 2015 F250 originally with stock open assist with camera? My last truck had the husky and it was nice. I would be willing to use replace/redo mounting hardware on truck or new tailgate if its just a mounting issue. Also I see that some aftermarket tailgates have the optional camera as well. Would my stock harness plug connect easily to the aftermarket camera. I want an aluminum tailgate as my first choice or second choice would be a steel one. I dont want the fiber one. Thank you for any insite.

For a steel fifth wheel style tailgate that fits your 2015 Ford F-250 we have the Stromberg Carlson 100 Series part # VG-97-100. We do not have an aluminum version at this time. I wish there was a way to reuse your backup camera but there isn't an adapter for this similar to what the HuskyLiners tailgates have/had. To use this would require the deactivation of the backup camera.
