Re: want to replac e ugly barndoor hinges

I cant remember a thread that anyone has done this. Seen the hatch latches replaced on Frizzle Frys old shortened burb. That seemed to be a lot of work and those didnt have the weird angles to deal with like on a barn door.

Take lots of pics if you do this, would make an interesting read.

I sort of remember somebody doing a hidden hinge on a panel some years back. I’ll have to see if I can find it. I may be way off but I think it had a lift gate and then the lower was split like barn doors.

I couldn’t find the build thread but I was able to find a picture of it in another thread. Maybe you can reach out to the member or dig into his posts and find it.
