Sorry I should have said I'm talking about 2500's ....I'm looking at rebuilding a diesel 2500 and i need a rear door and roof pillar and bed for it. wasn't sure what year's I might be able t get that from. I think I can use parts from a 1500 06 - 08 and 2500 06 - 09.

well..........thats not a 4th gen. 
most parts on the 02-08 1500s and 03-09 2500/3500s are swappable, with exception to a few things that changed (front fenders, headlamps, etc). but the doors are the same, roof, bed, all that stuff.

Might I ask what happened to the truck to require the parts? Only thing that comes to mind is a tree falling on it but just wondering.
