What is the difference between a Blazer door & a Suburban door?

Can a Suburban door be cut down to make a Blazer door? What is the difference between a truck door and a Suburban door, is it just the frame or is there other things?

Re: What is the difference between a Blazer door & a Suburban door?

IIRC, almost all doors are the same between the three. The only real difference is the window frame on the top.

So, yes a sub door can be cut for a blazer door, and vice versa.

I'm sure others will have more info too.

If you end up going that way with the Burb Door's another Guy was asking measurements of the Burb Door Frame & He may be able to use what you Cut off to save him from having to try making the Frames.............

Let me Know if you want a link to his Thread?

Good Luck with them, Rick

If I end up buying the Suburban door he is more than welcome to the part I cut off. There is also a Burb door frame listed on ebay right now for $20
