You might have better luck looking in the 88-98 parts board since the '91 Suburbans used that style trim and went by 1500 rather than 10,etc

Testing my memory pretty good here, but here goes. Since the R/V suburbans were not offered in a 3500, I'm pretty sure the exact emblem you're looking for does not exist? The R/V 1 ton square body trucks had door emblems, but I'm not sure they ever put body side moldings on those trucks. First picture from Mitchell showing part #'s, is from a 91 C3500 (new body style). Second picture is from a 91 R30 crew cab. It does not show the emblem with or without side moldings, just an emblem. Hope anything here helps, at least they do not have the dreaded "d" by them that means discontinued so maybe you can find them from your GM dealer with any luck.

All the emblems made to go in the moldings had tabs on them to fit in a notch in the door molding, all the way up to 98. The emblems made to go directly on the door skin were just flat, but I seen them used a lot on moldings when people would add moldings to their Cheyenne base truck.

I think the emblems that are on my '92 K3500 SLE (has molding) would work. The '91 Suburbans came with the same type moldings and were located on it,but on;t 1500 & 2500. I think the C/K 3500 emblems will work and look factory

Thank I will check out some trucks with the side molding my 97 didn't have the moldings down the side of the truck an the emblems were just stuck to the doors

That's why they were flat and did not have the tabs on them.....

Like I mentioned, the first photo I posted up top is a screen shot of 91 C3500, two different emblems, with or without molding. You are wanting with molding so they have the tabs.
