Suburban rear tailgate parts/glass
 
Does anyone sell the rear barn door glass? I have both set ups but the tailgate is missing the lock and bezel and latch is broken. Any help is appreciated

Unfortunately non of these parts are reproduced. You will have to find quality used parts.

I would suggest you become a Subscribing member (i.e. paid) and you can post in the Classified area a WTB post.

You other options are Craigslist or Ebay.

are you wanting glass for the panel truck doors? what i did is used my old ones for patterns and had our glass shop temper some in the green tint. (along with all the side glass)

they could cut them from safety plate and would be cheaper and easier

Just so you know, if you convert to clam shell you have to change the lower panel on the burban, the one welded to the quarters.

Why does it need to be changed? I had the clam shell set up on it already

perhaps he didn't realize that it was a clamshell configuration previously and was just commenting on what the normal process was when converting from barn to clamshell doors.
your 1stpicture did show it with barns doors and even though it did show the hinge pockets that may have been overlooked.
it is just like where do I get flat safety glass fot the back windows for barn doors. just go to a glass place and they will cut them for you
