 |
|
I am trying to remove the doors from my 66' and I have having some issues, pretty much I dont know what I'm doing. At first I thought the is a cap on the top of the hinge that needs to be removed first (but I am not seeing it nor is anything popping out). I also thought the pin might need to be tapped out from the bottom (no luck there either). Is there a specific tap I need?
Any suggestions? |

| If you open the door at look down the A pillar there are two bolts per hinge. They have a Phillips head on them. When you remove these the hinges slide out. |

| You also need an impact driver, you will strip them out with a normal screwdriver, don't even try. |

| I was thinking I just needed to pop the pins out and remove the doors that way, however, just removing the screws makes thing much easier. |
