3+3 doors and suburban REAR doors the same? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 86 k30 crewcab. The rear doors, cab doors, need help. I found a door near me. He says that the he is 98% sure they came from a suburban.

My question is, are the crewcab and suburban rear cab doors the same? If not how can you tell the difference between the two besides having a GM part # or any part #.

The help is greatly appreciated.

The rear doors are exactly the same between the Suburbans and crew cabs. This is very nice for us with crew cabs as it is a lot easier to find clean suburban doors than truck doors. Suburbans as a rule tend to have easier lives than trucks.

That's what I thought, but this guy said different. Thank you for the info. I'm happy now, it looks like a really clean door.

No problem! It definitely makes life easier when you can get Suburban doors
