Fred, those guys will tell you anything to sell a part and when it doesn't fit they say oh!! I would contact your nearest dealer and have them look up both parts and see if the part number is the same, if they aren't you may be taking a chance. im sure you can find the right year door at some other salvage yard cant you?

My list shows the same PN.."liftgate shell"... 4897796AA (only one listed for 96-00) however there are different latches.. plates etc... I think there was a recall on the latches for 96.. not sure.. memory not so good anymore. ... I don't have that stuff available (retired) don't keep up.

ahh you gave away your age!!, must be over 40. My memory went 4 yrs ago

The latch recall you are reffering to was over with the year 1995
 
thanks guys i think i will call the dealer in the am,,,,, the reason is the 96 door if compatible is $200 cheaper than all the 98's i've called about. thanks again fred
 
it is! you have to swap over all the switches. diff. resistance
 
can you explain a little further, what switches? thanks mic fred
