I just bought a 2010 F-150 extended cab with some body damage [I am a bodyman] When Ford brought out the "all new" 2009 up models I felt they were lying to us. The cab, doors, windows, roof and related parts look the same as the 04-08 to me. Is anyone up on this? Possibly a fellow bodyman?? Would an 08 door fit my '10 or an 07 roof panel?

 

I had an 05 supercrew and the doors were smaller than the doors on my 2010.

 

The supercrew cab for the 09+ F150 is 6" longer then it's predecessor.

 

OK That makes sense on the supercrew
But does anyone know about the supercab doors?

 

All the short doors disappeared, like those on the crew and regular cabs. I believe the scab doors are now used for everything now.

 

They are the same, but only on the scab (extended cab) models. The 04-08 reg cab and screw models had the shorter front doors, while the scab doors were longer. In 09 ford stretched the screw out 6 more inches and put the longer scab doors on the front. They also ditched the mini half doors on the regular cab and put the longer scab doors on them too. So now there is only 1 size front door no matter what cab style you have.

 

Now I am getting smarter. THANKS. So an 04-08 scab door will fit on an 09- up scab, correct? And a roof would follow suit?

 

Correct, nothing changed from 04-08 to 09-up on the scab cabs and doors. Also the 04-08 scab doors will fit 09-up screws and reg cabs.

 

I thought the body lines were different, and thats why the 09+ tailgates look wrong on the 04-08 trucks. i would double check to see that the creases and everything lined up.

 

The beds and fenders are obviously different. The cabs are the same (other than length on screws)

 

So the lines on the fenders will still line up with the lines on the doors?

 

I thought so. I always noticed this as Ford was introducing the "all new" 09 trucks. I thought people are being fooled here and how stupid does Ford think we are.

 

You do realize they changed a decent amount on them besides bedsides and fenders right?

 

Yes, I know the frame was built stronger, cab was strengthened, newer versions of engines with improved gas mileage, etc, but it still was not "all new". All new is what happened between 96 and 97 or between 03 and 04.

 

Looks like "all new" door skins to me.
