Well Im going to replace my drivers door tomorrow and wanted to know if I could only pull a door off a reg cab ram since thats what my truck is?

The only reason Im replacing it is cause of the latch not catching nomore and I figured it was from the door being jarred and not working right.

Regular cabs and Club Cabs will work.

Quad Cabs will not work.

Reg and Club have a rounded corner, Quads have a straight corner.

If the door itself is good. Itll probably be cheaper to just replace the latch.

Loosen the bolts from hing to door, and you can move the door around a bit that way. Make sure your hinge pins are in good shape first though. Two people are just about required for this exercise......
