Re: 5th Wheel Tailgate or will the Stock Tailgate work?
I do believe that there has been a few studies done and it makes little difference as to which tailgate you have for drag effect. However, I have had both types and currently operate with a regular OEM gate. My experience with both types is that the 5th wheel gate causes MORE and not LESS turbulence in the box. I have the necessary blocks in the box, and they never move regardless of where I put them. On the 5er tailgate, I once had an oil drain pan pasted vertically to the tail gate with 15 quarts of oil in it.
PS- my gate ain't bent yet.
