Bill,

I had struggles with Bruce's door hinges also. My issue was that the top arm of the hinge was about 1.5" up into the dash and I couldn't open the door due to interference with the dash. After some surgery, I was able to relocate the arms on the mounting plate and make them work. I also added bronze bushings to tighten them up and make operation quite a bit smoother. This doesn't sound like the issue that you have, but know that your struggles are shared by others. Bruce makes you think outside of the box in order to make things work sometimes.

I'm having issues posting photos, but if you'll PM me your number, I'll text you some pics of what I did with mine.

Stacy
