2 or 3 door van
Hi all,
I've been having some trouble figuring what parts are correct for my 05' E350, as there apparently is a 3 door and 2 door van.
I searched for the difference and found the same pictures coming up as both.
My van has the typical double swinging doors behind the passenger door.
I'm don't know what exactly a 2 door van would be, as they all have the side door.
On ebay when searching for parts, there's some items that are correct for 2 door but not for 3 door.
I'm trying to avoid having to return incorrect parts.
Is there any definition of what the difference is?
Thanks

Who or what site is asking whether you have a 2 door or 3 door van? I don’t think Ford sold anything but the van you describe aside from the swing vs sliding side door. Maybe you have a custom body on an Econoline frame?
What parts are correct for 2 door vs 3 door? I suspect the seller has bad information from an application reference.

Hi,
I am looking for brake pads and rotors.
ebay sellers have this box where you fill in the particulars of your vehicle and it then pops up a line or 2 saying yes or not compatible.
one seller redponded that the only difference he was aware of was single or dual rear wheels.
i finally found a pair of rotors and paid.
the next morning i received a message that sale was canceled and refunded.
when i contacted the seller he said when his order picker took it off the shelf it was damaged.
back to contacting sellers.
the pads are on the way.
i hope they're correct.

When I'm shopping to buy parts for my E-Series van I'll first look on FordPartsGiant or RockAuto mostly to obtain the OEM or Motorcraft part numbers. Using those I do a general Google search for those numbers and buy from the one offering best combined price of parts with shipping and tax figured in.
Anyone asking whether you have a 2 or 3 door van doesn't inspire confidence in me they know what they're doing. The E-Series have only one option door-wise: sliding right side door OR hinged side doors. This has already been mentioned?
How, when and why this door count question came into being escapes me---I ignore it.
