Blazer Door Cut down
 
Has anyone cut down a 1972 C10 door to fit a blazer? Or could someone direct me to the right thread?

Raggedjim & Iks dcvn, have either of you done it and if have was it easy? Because I'm debating on cutting one down or just buying new doors. Give me your thoughts.

It is very easy, I used a cutoff wheel and measured the old door.

I've never done it, but it sure looks easy. The only downside is the truck doors won't have the reinforcement plates at the latch area.

Drill the spot welds out on your original doors and weld them on the truck doors.

Don't forget to take the stainless steel plates off also you wouldn't believe how many sets of those I have sold.
