To open the tailgate you have to use the key in the tailgate lock. If it is like mine, it does not always release immediately and you just need to push on the tailgate while the key is turned. You should be able to hear the latch release and then you just lift the tailgate up. If the shock absorbers for it are worn out it will be a slow hard lift to get it to open completely.

I once had a 1987 that had the same problem! On the inside of the tailgate, at the top ends, there should be a small lever. You can flip them one at a time and it will un latch the tailgate!

The tailgate on a 2004 Dodge Ram pickup can be removed by removing the gate from the hinges holding it in place. Open the tailgate halfway and remove the slotted hinge from each side while holding the gate up. Then open the tailgate all the way and slide the tailgate off.
