Is there a kit or anything to do this. Or if not how would one go about setting up the latch on the other side to work? i have a feeling its easy i just have no idea how to go about it. help.

i got an inside panel from a friend. he cut the outside section out of a tailgate around the handle and welded ito the panel and smoothed it. ill post some pics tomorrow when i get some light.

thanks. Does the handle just flip over easy enough? just swap the bars over that activate the latches?

yeah just switch the rods to the opposite sides and it hooks back up stock. its a great install.

I have the suicide doors kit. I havent installed it yet, but will do so in the next few weeks hopefully. I will take pics for everyone and do a write up.

ok i just snapped some pics tonight so the quality is crappy with the flash and stuff. now keep in mind that he had it just sitting around so ignore the scratches and stuff. i still gotta sand it down and primer it. i wanted to make it fit and work first. it fits perfect even with my floor being raised 6 1/2 inches.
