Thought I would respond to the question I had about the gap in the upper part of the door. Looks like my issue is common and the have a solution. I ordered this. Option for two and four door.
I have a rear seal and retainers for the left and right side of the hood. But don’t know if there is supposed to be a center seal where the hood bumper brackets are. Anyone know if this requires a seal and where to find it? Thanks
Installed the second and third door today. Had to call West Kentucky Surplus to ask questions and have to comment on the great service by Adam and his staff. So easy to get on the phone and answered all my questions. Doors open and shut perfectly. Lightly swing door and it latches by itself.
I...
Yes, they are getting expensive. I looked on EBay but didn’t find a better deal considering shipping costs. The windows were $90. Each side. $50 extra for a light gray tint.
Update- had to drill out a 3/4” hole to remove the broken blind nut. Too tight for me to try to weld another nut in there so I if I ever have to remove this part of the hinge I will have to remove the B pillar support bracket again.
I pulled out the B pillar support bracket. Unfortunately, the nutsert is located in the raised channel of the pillar. So no access to the bolt. Drilled a hole behind the bracket and it’s just too small to retrieve bolt. Will get a larger bit and remove with a magnet.
could have cut the bolt...
That’s a great solution. Didn’t even consider that. But I will likely remove the B pillar bracket so all of the hinge bolts are the same. I’m assuming there is enough room behind the bracket to get a bolt back there.
The nutsert broke loose on a door hinge. I cut the head off thinking I could push it through the B pillar but the back of the bolt/nutsert is hitting the B pillar support. (See photo)
my guess is I have to remove the support to get the bolt out and to install the new hinge bolt. But before I go...
Just did this a couple days ago. Look from underneath and you will see where you can insert a socket on an extension right next to the bushing. After I did the first one I was able to do the second side without getting under the truck
Can anyone tell me what size nut I need to attach the wiper pivot arm to the outside of the window frame? It looks like it comes with the whole assembly but I don’t need that. Just need the bolt and the washer. Thank you!
