Doors

What is the difference between Suburban doors and truck doors? I have a friend who has some Burban doors that are in mint shape (compaired to mine). He said they can be made to fit the trucks?

I was thinking of just cutting the bottoms off them and using them to fix the bottom of my doors.

Thanks

Re: Doors

I would just change the upper door frame and leave everything else.

Re: Doors

Just change the tops! It will be a piece of cake, if you have a little weld and fab skills.

Re: Doors

Burb window frames are squared at the back.
So you will need to swap the glass to.

Re: Doors

Thanks everyone. They still need some little work on the bottoms, pin holes, but they are 100 times better than mine, I'll just need to add the custom deluxe trim holes.
