Doorless II

[kmanxj5050]

my drivers side door is sagging already so i am thinking of when i do this. Instead of using bolts making some studs on the lathe to be EXACT.

I need to get some of those bushings. My stock ones are completely worn out and my door is starting to sag to the point of leaking in the rain. Do the bushings stay in the jeep side of the hinge and don't fall out when you are fooling with the doors?

link to those bushings? i couldnt find them on the carr website. I just did mine yesterday. I was thinking about not cutting the bottom portion of the hinge off and just sliding a pin in each time but they are a little hard to get on with the bottom part of the hinge on so i will probably end up doing this.

What about the dome light, just unplug the switch too?

yeah you gotta use a socket and unscrew it then just unplug

You can also just unplug it under the trim piece, that's always been easier in my experience.

They are a bronze bushing by McMaster Carr (P/N 6338K453) that is 5/16" ID and 7/16" ID so that a 5/16" hinge pin fits PERFECT. They are on the body hinge when you remove the doors. The seats are stock Agate cloth seats from a 2000 Classic.
