42187 and 42188 are the 2 options I cam up with, from various sites. Including Dorman. 1 kit includes enough for all 4, and the other is just the 2 of them.

The passenger side door OPENS! :D Pulled the seat out to swap the donor seat in (other has some broken springs under it), and had enough room to get in there with a long skinny screwdriver to pop it open. The latch was gummed up REALLY BAD! Got it cleaned up enough and use chain lube on it. opens and closes like a new one. Stays shut, without any rattles either! :D I'm a happy camper. Wife ought to like that too. ;)

Well, the door latch acted up the following I posted in here the last time. So, having a junk pass door on my Cummins donor, I stole it out of that one, and put it in the 93. Working good now. :D

Looks like the fuel pump did the trick. Truck hasn't laid down on me again. :D 'Bout 1000 miles on it, since I put the pump on, not that long ago. The extra power is nice. Kinda cool (and also pathetic), that this old girl feels almost as strong as the 99 I had, with an Edge Juice w/ Attitude on it with the wire tapped. I suppose the 93 having 3.55 gears, vs 4.10s helps a bit in the butt-o-meter dept.

Nahhh, it ain't the gears. It's the vastly superior VE pump that does it! ;)

Just enough power to break everything behind the crankshaft.
