Ya i saw it out there. Doesn seem like much of anything but i have seen people start with a lot worse. Could be a good deal i guess. Are you still looking for one?

Well i think i have some doors located for my truck. The guy told me he just put all new window motors in before he pulled them off. I am going to go look at them tonight!

[WillieloRidez]

Well i picked up the doors! They are a lot better than the ones on my truck. Anyone no how to put power doors on a non power truck?

Nice Score Willie!!

first of all, I hope these doors have the wiring plugs intact? also there should be some large grommets on the front door wiring.

All you need is the power harness from a 'burb or crew cab. It will include the power lock relay which mounts under the steering column. there are only 3 wires to hook up under your dash. Switched 12V, all time hot 12V, and a ground. There should be places on your fuse block to plug the hot wires into and the ground hooks to the ground buss to the left of the instrument cluster. If you look closely on your trucks A and B-pillar you will see small indentions for where you need to drill holes for the wiring to pass through (you will also find the same indentions on the inside of the kick panel kinda high almost behind the dash, you will need to drill holes the proper size for the grommets to fit in. the rear will have access holes already). It is pretty simple, you will need some hole saws and I used self drilling screws to attach the accordion boots to the cab. Be sure to drill the pass-through holes with the doors off, makes it much easier.

fell free to ask if you have any specific questions or if I didn't make it clear

[Devillusion]

Perfect, was going to ask the same question here soon....as I will be doing the same thing to my 89 Crew.

Thanks!!!

Thanks Joe! The guy i bought the doors from did leave the plugs on so that is a plus. I think when i put the new steering column in it has the power lock relay on it( rectangular box ). I will hopefully be getting to this in a coulpe of weeks so if i have any questions i will be sure and ask! Thanks agian

What are you doing with your current wheel/tire package?

[WillieloRidez]

I havent really thought about it. I would probably sell them if someone was interested.

[Devillusion]

consider me somewhat interested. Email me all the details brownr@inetlink.ca , size offset some better pictures of them on and with or without tires, tread depth etc.

Shipped to 58329

I might be considering converting my crew to a 5 bolt/1/2 ton here yet. Or at least till I get the 4 link figured out. Have to see what transpires yet, I change my mind like my underwear. And yes that is at least once a day.....again, depending....lmfao!

thanks!

[WillieloRidez]

Ok i had to do it! I bolted a 20 on the front just to see what its going to look like!
