Yes, hinges are from AutoLoc.

Got any pics of the hinges mounted? Are you using latches and deadbolts or just latches? I am seriously thinking about doing this also. I figure if I have to wrestle to get the doors aligned... it might as well be cool when I'm done

Thanks

Looks good........ but you forgot to smooth the headliner area!

NSANE68!!! · 07-02-2003, 11:10 AM

Cool XXL, lookin good. I wish I would have chopped the top. Did you lay it back so you can use a stock windshield, what about side glass? Just gonna have a shop cut it.
I am starting my suicied doors now, but I took the el cheapo way out and using hinges from a 78 Jeep Gran Cherokee $30 salvage yard, and flipping them, will use factory catches and flip as well.

Thanks. Windshield is laid back but the glass will still have to be cut. Side glass is Brothers' one-piece kit and will need to be cut as well. Rear glass remains stock (lowered the whole opening).

No pics of the door progress yet. It will have just the bearclaw latches. The doors are shaved so little chance of me accidentally opening the door at speed since there's no inside handle... or so I hope!
