Default Crank to power window conversion

Has anyone on here converted their doors to power? I know I have tails for fog lights up front without having lights. Are the tails for power windows in the doors even though I have manuals? Maybe the wires but no supply voltage.
Thanks Rammers

Nice stereo install. I was going to get a pair of junkyard doors and convert my truck to PW/PL but I will have to dig out the wiring diagram and run some supply first.

I'm parting out my 1997 if you're in need of parts.

Be careful bud, not sure any of it will work on 2001. He needs all wire harness', CTM, door switches , all door internals (lock motors,regulator w motors,harness) . Hate to see you have to give money back and pay shipping again.


Cant find the thread, but there is one from a guy here that did it. But he used parts from the same or at least similar models (ie 98 and up)

Red Green hilarious! Thanks vw and dodge, my 01 has a quad cab, its not keeping the truck from running so I have to find something to fix on it. I will wait for a local guy with a bad tranny to come along, shouldn't be too much of a wait , and get the whole door before they send it to the JY. that way, except for the supply it should be an easy swap. Maybe I will be lucky and find one the same color. Put new hinges on it too.
Did I forget to say Thanks for all the help in the past. ? Humilaty and honesty always wins in my book.
Keep the shinny side up.

You'll need a lot more than a door. Just sayin' And if you want something to fix, replace the plenum plate,cat and o2's. Read the plenum sticky if you have not already done so.

Oh zman, don't ever change. you are great the way you are.(Billy Joel song plays in the background.) Plenum fixed by PO, probably could use a new O2, age unknown, cat not bad but thanks for the suggestions.

........... I wish I could find the thread for this swap. It was far from easy, and IIRC, he actually gave up and had a shop finish/figure out how to make it work. And btw, if you fill out your sig and profile with some basic info, people would know what's on it and has been done to the truck.
