whoops

open your door on a driver's side off-camber hill...



...and receive a nice dent in the body tub where the door strap connects, after the door swings open at high speed and the strap yanks on the hook.

:doh

that sucks. why are you running doors?

Does it interfere with the door closing? My sister did that to my dads Jeep but instead of denting the body it popped the heads off the bolts holding the strap loop on the door.

i haven't figured out how to take them off yet...

:dunno:

i don't think so, door still shuts fine. now that you mention it i would imagine that the strap bolts would have popped out before the tub got bent. it's great that they make the body tubs out of nice thick metal so they don't bend when you do something rough like open the door, or press your fingers against them, or breathe too heavy on the paint....:omg:

Come by and I'll show you. I should be installing the new Rock-It-Man rockers soon (you still want the old ones?)

oops...sarcastic remark. i know how to take the doors off but i had them on that day! I figured sarah would catch that one.

still interested in the old sliders but in no rush PM me whenever. Thanks,

I just did that on Sunday! But lucky for me it only snapped the strap

[YJwonderboy]

Ouch man...I don't usually worry about that. My jeep is so bent out of shape that another dent or twelve wouldn't matter ^.^
