Door removal - SCNative - 02-24-2009
What is the correct or easiest way to remove the doors when I plan to take them on and off for the seasons? Should I just push/tap up the pins in the hinges or remove the hinges from the door frame? I realize that I also need to remove the door strap. Thanks.

They are made so that you need to remove the entire hinge, but getting them to line back up when you put them back on is a major PITA!!! I ended up taking the hinge pin out and using a bolt like jeep style door, but your rig is too pretty to alter like that.

Robert said it all, some other posiblitys are the pins that come out. I did the write up on classic. It works, especialy if its just an off roader since the paint does get scratched taking them out.
I have run with and with out, I have realy grown to like them, the dirt always got kicked in the cab. Nothing like getting pelted with mud while trying to drive.
The clean look is too buy the pre cut ones. The one thingt to consider is if your truck should ever roll, the doors can fall off. I have never put a cage into my door jam, if I had the lift off hinges i would want the cage to cover the door frame some.
