1949 60 SPCL. FLEETWOOD.   I PLAN TO DUMP THE  HYDRO/ELC. SYSTEM TO  FULLY AFTER MARKET ELC. FRONT DOOR WINDOWS AND WISH TO REPLACE MY REAR DOORS FROM 60 SPCL..WITH SERIES 62/61 WITH CRANK WINDOWS.  INTERCHANGE BOOK SAZ NO.  DOORS ARE NOT INTERCHANGABLE.I THINK IT IS BECAUSE THE 60 SPCL HAS HYDRO/ELC. LIFTS AND 62/61 HAS NOT (EXCEPT "X" MODEL).  I HAVE MEASURED AND THEY LOOK THE SAME.  QUESTION... WILL 62/61  REAR DOORS FIT SAME AS 60 SPCL REAR DOORS???
I KNOW THE TRIM IS DIFF, BUT THAT IS NO PROBLEM.

ANY HELP, COMMENTS, ECT, IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Only one way to find out for sure. Try it. If it doesn't work you'll know why and perhaps share the result.

The parts book is correct, those 66&62 doors don't fit a 60S. Everything on a 60S from the B pillar on back is different. look at the part of the door at the fender skirt area for both cars , you can see the difference.  The manual window crank mechanism from the 61,62 should work in your 60S doors.
