Question K5 and Suburban rear doors??

I have a couple of K5 Blazers and have found a near mint rear gate from a Suburban in the boneyard. Are these the same?? Can I just buy this and put it on my Blazer?? Thanks again fellas for lending your knowledge!!!!

K5 tailgates are different from Suburbans. At least to my knowledge they are.

The gate is completely different. The Sub gate goes up on the sides and slopes straight sown to the body line, the Blazer gate is flat across the top, and is curved down to the body line (similar to the body sides).
