I have a 2002 XLT 4 door. Power windows, locks and mirrors. :sad:The front and back door on the passenger side are completely rusted out on the bottom.
Couple of questions:
What years will fit?
Can they be repaired?
Best place to find replacements?
Things to watch out for?

In order of questions:
1. 98 - 11 (provided the donor is also a 4 door)
2. Yes they "can" be repaired, but if yours are rotten where mine are, I assume where the outer door shell wraps around the bottom edge to the inner door jam, if so the amount of time/cost it would take to fix it a new(er) door could be sourced from the junk yard.
3. Junk yard or craigslist
4. For ease of swapping doors try to find some similarly equipped (option-wise) and it should be plug-n-play. If not, you should be able to transfer all the parts from your doors to the new ones.

Thanks

Thank you both for your help. I'll do some searching on Craigs List and the local Junk yards. I'm going to check LMC now.

Another question. Any idea what a junk yard might ask for a door?

Local parts are based on local demand.

If you live in a place that salts roads in winter or near the ocean then car parts rust, so demand for those parts, not rusted, would be higher, so seller can ask more.

If you live somewhere that rust isn't a problem then body part demand is low so seller is lucky to get a few dollars.
