where can i find a suicide door kit for the rear doors on the box and i dont want to spend a lot of money please help me out guys

 

no kits yet....

 

Has anyone even done it yet?
I've seen a lot of people that say they are, but no pics.

 

i really want to do this i think it would look so sick

 

i know of 2 people that tried it....

both were disasters and turned back to stock.

 

It's actually my dream mod........lol.

One of these days when I have unlimited resources I will do it.

 

you are not the first to have these thoughts...

but it is much harder to do than a simple kit....

 

there was a couple guys on the boards that tried it and did a lot of structural damage to the back or something. one guy even sold his and bought another cause he said it was so messed up.

from my understanding, the back area where you would normally bolt the suicide hinges is no way strong enough to bolt something and hold the door. but im no expert, so dont take my word for it. this was dream mod too. hehehe. dream on i guess.

 

I still think it can be done. You just have to completely rethink the way the rear doors are shaped.

 

what about like an elements back door hinges i wonder if that would work

 

If you have the $$$ then it can be done.

 

$$ is the only thing i dont have

 

Word!

 

i had to save up for like 2 months to afford the ydr intake and thats only 90 bucks im broke

 

i think you would have to actually modify the whole door and rear quarter panel, the way they are shaped will not work for the door to open like that, you would have to probably have a hinge that comes out first, then opens outward...but as said, with money, anything can be done ;-)

 

well when someone finds a way and makes a kit or a good DIY i will be doing it. but i am not about to try it myself.

 

yeah same here i want it i might stop by this low rider shop that i have seen suicide doors put on and see what they think its a pretty reputable shop so i will let you guys know what they say

 

the element hinge idea wouldn't work cause the back of the elements door is straight and the xb is curved. a few people w/ 300c's have tried doing this conversion as well but had no luck cause of the door shape. the back curve only leaves room for a hinge up top but i think it might work if you add a gas strut on the lower half to reinforce it. i haven't put much thought into the design so the strut might not even fit.

 

We have a shop in town that did suicides on the back and lambos onthe front of a 300C.

It can, and will, be done.

 

i'm sure it can be done it's just gonna cost a good amount of $$$. the major problem people are having is the hinge isn't strong enough so the door sags and hits the door sill area.
