Door compatibility.

[SilentWolf8293]

Hey Guys. I have my '84 Eagle and it's got some real bad cancer on it's doors. I have access to another set of doors that are in dang near mint condition and exactly the same color. but the car they are on is an '87. I was just wondering if the two years are compatible or if AMC changed something in the design.

Same Jane!

The uppers are slightly different between the small (Kammback & SX/4) and large cars (sedan, wagon) but are the same within those categories for the whole run.

The eagles and concord stayed the same throughout the entire production run. The doors from a 1980 eagle wagon will bolt right on to an 88' wagon. Anything from 81' to 88' is a direct swap. A 1980 model Eagle or concord would need a side molding swap but would still be a perfect fit.

The way I've experienced this is some awkward mix of compatibility between 81-87 Eagles. a 4-door will swap great with another 4-door. I've never seen a 2-door but imagine they interchange well with other 2-doors. So the designs depending on door count are exclusive to each one another. Not sure about ridiculous swaps like a 4-door Hornet or Concord swapping with an Eagle but I wouldn't be at all surprised if the above theory holds.

if I remember correctly there was a member on here who at one time used Hornet doors on his Eagle but I could be wrong.
