New to the sight, wondering if anyone is offering a 5th wheel tailgate for a 2021 2500 6'4' box?
 
No the tailgates from pre 2019 do not fit the 2019-2021, the hinge pockets are different. I had to modify my 2018 5th wheel tailgate to fit my 2021. I had to cut off the hinge pocket on the passenger side and welded on the correct one, fits perfect now. I think your only option at this time is to modify the pre 2019 tailgate. I also added a backup camera on the tailgate to keep that option.

Where did you get the new piece that you welded on?
