Need a passenger side door for a 1973 Dodge Van (RV), car-part.com says up to a 1984 will fit, what is the difference in a 1985 and up?

Thanks!

As far as I know van doors from 1971-1997 are physically the same dimensionally. From 1998-2003, the wing window was eliminated and used one piece of glass. From 1971-1978, the vans had basically the same "nose" so I would narrow your search to those years. After 1978, the van changed body style slightly, so I can't 100% say that a door from anything after would fit.

I would have to agree with Dodgevanman and keep your search to 71-77. Like he said, in 78 changes were made.

I would say all doors are the same, but I am not sure about the fixing points, holders... etc.

78s will work, but there is a recess behind the door handles that isn't there on the 71-77 doors. The 79 and up have a completely different wheel well, and won't work at all.
