Question Swapping Doors

I want to swap my doors from my parts truck onto my 1980 F350 project. How hard is it to change them? I'd just like to know what I'm getting into before I start. Thanks

Get a hefty friend, a 6 pack and a pizza because it's not a one man job. You have to line up the latch and body lines so it can get tough if your'e alone. Just make sure that you don't slam the door shut until you get it all lined up nice and neat. I have a friend that slammed his door and I laughed myself into a coma when it bounced back and hit him in the chest.

Big hoss,

Did ya tell him to slam it harder next time?

I have needed doors for 2 years and have looked far and wide for a used truck. Turns out they all look worse than mine. Doors and tailgates...
