Will stepside tailgate fit a regular bed?

I think we now have two questions here.
A step side bed is more narrow than the regular style side bed, so the step side tailgate will not be wide enough. A step side bed is 6' long. It will fit in place of a 6' style side bed (complete bed swap). However, the OP stated LONG bed. A long bed is 7' long, so a step side bed WILL NOT FIT on HIS truck.
BTW: Ford's nomenclature is FLARE SIDE and STYLE SIDE... GM's name is STEP SIDE and FLEET SIDE. We all use them interchangeably and know what the poster is talking about. Just some trivia for ya! :)
