I thought they were reproduced, but I can't find them. I went to the Truck shop in Orange, and they usually have everything. Does anybody know where to buy them?

I found ones for a blazer, are they the same?

Someone on here, recently, said they are not the same.

I bought Blazer ones also but haven't tried them.

Thats great! Thanks Richard. That looks like just what I need.

No problem, I remembered seeing them when I was looking for seals for my Blazers & my panel. I kept the page bookmarked cause I knew I would never find it again.lol

I found everything in the Steel Rubber Products catalog.
The two in the outside upper hatch were the same as a blazer. Then the two that go in the body for the upper hinges ore the same as a barn door Suburban. The 4 holes in the body where the barn door hinges would go are a plug with an extra tail on it that's the bumper for the hatch or tail gate.
I can send p/n's tomorrow after I return from the Pomona Swap Meet. Anybody going?

LuckyScott · 01-17-2016, 06:23 PM

Yes, please send them. I was at Pomona all morning.

I found the following in a 2012 Steel Rubber Products catalog.

Hinge to hatch P/N 60-0736-69.
Hinge to body P/N 60-0659-69.
The plug / bumpers P/N 70-1795-71.

Some of the pieces come individually, some come in sets.
Hope this helps.
