So I've been thinking I want suicide doors again ( had them on my Mazda) and I was wondering how hard it is to do using one of the kits they sell. Anyone on here ever done it?
If your going to use a kit ,use the one from SuicideDoors .com I done two one with a kit & mine stock hinge & latches. The kits swing the door to the outside ,stock hinge swings inside the body line!
Ya I saw yours I like it alot. I was thinkin the sd.com kit aswell or the Carolina customs one which I heard is the same as sd.com how hard was it to do using a kit
Not bad,go to SuicideDoors site & print out the how to & study it. The first side took 4 days the second side two. Make sure to plate the door & add bracing behind the pockets inside the cab. All the finish grinding is where most of the time is! Consider installing safety latches, as I have heard more than once of the Bear Claw type latches failing, & the door opening & any speed will do a lot of damage!!
I have been reading alot on it an just trying to figure it out. Doesn't seem to hard at all just time consuming
It is a lot of work! Most shops will charge around $1,800 per side ,this is with a kit,not stock hinged!
