Front Door
« on: November 20, 2015 - 09:23:17 PM »
Been 20 years since I took 70 challenger apart. Trying to figure out best way to put the front doors back on. . almost looks to me you have to put hinge on frame and door and then line up pin. I had hinge on frame and door hinge together and it does not seem I have room to start bolts on door.
thanks

Ya put hinge on frame and door and then put pin in. It's a two person job. Support the door on a floor jack with some padding on it to protect the bottom of the door.
In search of the eternal buzz!

:iagree: A little frustrating job, but surely a two man job
