Re: Where to cut truck doors?
If you still have blazer doors, just sitting next to the truck doors, then you can tell exactly where you need to cut so you don't go too far.

I gotcha! just use whatever that you have available to you that is faster and as said above leave a little extra material just in case, is always better to grind that to weld material back on ![]() ![]()

Re: Where to cut truck doors?
just did some for mine, I used a cut off wheel on my die grinder and left a little material. that way i could grind a little for a perfect fit. i was lucky to have a original blazer door to use as a template.

The assembly manual's have pictures, but no measurements.
