Side Doors from Factory?
« on: March 11, 2016, 01:35:24 PM »
.
I am removing this hardware for paint.� �I most likely will NOT be adding any doors in foreseeable future,� �so wondering if I should weld up the holes.� � (there are a couple sets.� :) )

I would leave the holes,� if there from factory.

The ones for the hinge are factory (on the right). The two circled in blue look the the factory ones for the door track.

Your door hinge, in its current, appears to have been moved.  I believe mine matches G-nomes position...and the circled holes in your photo.

Yeah, I was looking at the body seam in comparison to the top hole. I agree, it was moved up for some reason.
