Took a day on each door. I had the hinges upside down. Duhhhh. Once I figures out the hinges were upside down it went smoothly. I could open the door all the way it would rub the body. Then I fliped the hinge over and all went well.

I thought there were divets or indents on the door were to drill and tap? I did drill and tap the hinge arms to the door first and then attached it to the cowl frame next. slide it up down back and forth untill it cleared and open on closed . Then I drilled and taped the cowl frame to the frame. I actual had to shim the cowl frame up a bit with some steel shims.

Hinges are on the body side.


I guess I didn't take pictures doing my doors. If you need pics let me know.

This was the most difficult part of the whole build.
