Is it the same window as a 83 Suburban?

Blue Heeler · 08-02-2011, 12:18 AM

I really don't know, do some reseach and let me know.

BLE 'BURBAN · 08-02-2011, 04:03 AM

Nope they ain't the same. The burb has more of a curve to it top to bottom than the blazer and the blazer is a bit narrower as well.

thirdstreettito · 08-02-2011, 10:24 AM

Well, I called my local glass place and he said the part numbers are the same for the burb and blazer.

Blue heeler, is the glass smoked?

The person you talked to shouldn't be working there. They are shaped very differently, I can get pics if you want proof.

With over 23 years in the Auto parts business - 12 of them with a G.M. dealership - plus owning a Suburban for the last 5 yrs and my oldest friend around working in a glass shop for about the same amount of time that can and will comfirm what I said earlier.
I strongly suggest you recheck with your sources and have them do a bit more research They will find that they were mistaken in saying that they are the same.

See, I told my pop that, but he had to go call the "experts". I told him, the tailgates are different, the blazer is more like a pickup tailgate, so the curve of the window is probably different.

Yeh! They're not the same. DAMHIK

They are also hard to find and cost a pretty penney new.

All the local junk yards I've checked know this.
