Suburban doors on a truck?
I have an 85 GMC that I am replacing the doors on and I have a cousin who is willing to give me a mint set of front doors from an 88 Suburban. My problem is that I always assumed they were the same. I have been all over he net and can't find anything to confirm or debunk this. A guy I work with says they won't work, that they are longer and have different hinges. The worst part is that I called my go to guy (been to body work for 40 years) and he even said he has never tried it. I looked at part numbers on other sites and can find distinction that it would be different. Can anyone help me out before I drive an hour to go pick them up and try to install them to find they in fact don't fit?

Re: Suburban doors on a truck?
They will work. Front doors all the way up to 91 will fit just fine. If your doing power windows/locks, get the entire harness.

They fit. The only differences are the harness, switches and door panels.

Re: Suburban doors on a truck?
The only physical difference is where the vent window attaches on the slope of front of door. There is only 1 screw (on 90 Suburban) whereas the truck door has 2. From what I can tell it is same vent window but with 1 screw missing and obviously not needed.
I have a door from a Suburban and noticed this. Last edited by HOGDADDY; 06-25-2010 at 01:15 PM. |
