Re: started working on the 65 suburban
The Burb slider latches are not reproduced, and it is hard to find originals. And when you do find them they are $$$. I believe there are some in the '60-'66 classifieds here on the forum.
I see you're over in Spokane, I'm in CDA Quote:

Re: started working on the 65 suburban
The C10 Suburban has the same wheelbase as a short wheelbase C10. The Suburban frame will have body mounts from the rear of the doors, back, instead of bed mounts. Also the rear of the Suburban frame will be shaped to accept the Suburban rear bumper. The truck frame will have a square cut on the rear end of the frame. Otherwise they are the same.
