Title: Suicide
Post by: PHANTOM 309 on October 01, 2007, 04:32:17 pm

Have any of you guys out there done suicide doors on 73-87 trucks? Or do you know of any articles/photos of installs? Any info would be appreciated. It's something that I have always wanted to do and am thinking of trying it next spring.

This isn't a 73-87, but the procedure applies.  This is probably the best kit you can get that I know of: http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/general-discussion/tech-articles/113656-suicide-doors-your-fsc-detailed-how.html

This place has the kit listed for cheaper, but I know Suicide Doors have great customer service.

It's just something that I have always wanted to do. The one nice thing about this mod is that you can't tell unless they the doors open so if you end hating the way it looks at least you don't hav to see it all the time.

What about Lambo doors?  There seem to be lots of kits out there for them lately.

Eveyone I mention Lambo doors to thinks they're fruity. I guess it has to do with them DONK cars.

With the way they paint parking lot spaces so small these days,I may just put them on my next project.
