Also, any info as to any other issues pertaining to installing other doors would be appreciated. The vehicle is in fair condition, and the price is reasonable. Also, available from the same party is a complete 1.5t. GMC truck with a 248c.i. engine, for $ 400.00 Your thoughts? (the suburban is missing the engine and trans.)
Thanks, Bill

eBay listings are short-lived - they should not be placed in a post - the eBay link that was here has been removed
Posting the eBay search criteria would be OK (not the Bay item number or link to an eBay item).
