Rear crewcab doors the same as rear 'burb doors?

[Zeus33rd]

The driver side rear door on my crewcab has a fairly large dent. Are 'burb and crew cab doors the same? I'm trying to decide if it's gonna be easier to just replace the door with a straight one, or fix the dent in the current one. I figured it would be easier to find 'burb doors, not so many crews in the junk yards. I also plan on painting the truck in the near future as well.

Does anyone know anything about the paint-less dent repair procedure? What kind of dents are candidates for this?

Here's the dent-

Any ideas for the best way to fix this?

same doors .

looks like you could hammer n dolly that out fairly easy and then skim coat it.

Good news there. Thx.

You might as well have typed that in hieroglyphics for as much sense as it made to me. I know enough to know that you are referring to body work of some kind, but that's it. I'm either gonna pay someone else to fix it, or just get a new door.

I think any dent that has a crease (like yours) won't work with the paintless dent removal. You could fix that dent, but rear doors are relatively easy to find that are straight and mint so I don't see the point. I currently have 4 extra rear doors sitting here in my garage. Two from a burb and two from a 6 pack, all four straight and full power. First pair I got for $100, second are part of a full set of four I got for $250.

Excellent. That's even better news Rene. When I get back, I'm only gonna have about 3 weeks to build this truck and fix any major issues before I turn right back around and drive 2800 miles from CA to GA. Much faster to swap out a door than to mess around with body work and shiit.
