Default suicide doors

Alright a had one. I have a two door Blazer and I wanted to know is it possible to put a suicide door on the drivers side. Are there sturdy enough parts to grip or am I dreaming. I know that it would have to be a custom job and the bottom of the door would be curved instead of straight but has anyone ever heard of anyone trying this?

Now you have me thinking that I shoud do suicide doors on the rear of my '87 Caprice.
I saw the other post for the hinge kit and I'm starting a job at a bodyshop in a week.
It's gonna cost me a lot of money if I copy all the ideas off this site!!!

I don't think that there is a problem with doing it to a 4 door. Got one guy on post with a set and it looks pretty good. I think that if I do it to mine that I will have a problem because it is a 2 door and I will have to get the doors in the back custom cut and the door custom made. Not sure if it is worth the effort.
