Topic: tube doors

[yota18]

I got the quick release hinges..... and am now looking for some stock hinges. I only change the doors 2x a year and the quick release while cool have been difficult for an idiot like me. Good product but unless you are removing doors a lot, not worth it in my opinion.

catch 22, the hinges are worn, need new bushings.......... so if you are still interested and have some stockers in good shape I could be convinced!

I know 2 people that have the quick release hinges and they really don't care for them.  In fact one of them is going back to the stock hinges because the quick release are so difficult to line up.

As long as the Brass bushings in the hinges are in good shape, the people that I know all like theres,,, I am just getting ready to make a set,,, Ill let you know how they turn out!   

[RCKSQRL]

The bushings get shot rather easily, at least mine did!

If you use the same size pin as stock they should last quite a long time... The stock hinges last hundreds of thousands of miles,  I'm hoping   to get 15-30 thousand out of it and I'll make a new set if I need to... The pin is 8mm BTW or 5/16 I believe is very close as well. Just a little tech!

i tried the 5/16" pin, and it sucked..... i could never get the door aligned
