Thank's Turp. That info helps, but I still want to fab up some braces for when I pull the tub off for the frame resto. Years ago, before I had a "clue", I took the top off and went wheeling. In rough terrain, the doors kept popping open. No major damage, as the top went back on with no problems. Planning on rocker/torsion box resto and full rollcage setup, to allow soft top use. Anybody got pic's of door/tailgate braces they have used?
