After a hiatus, I need an opinion...

I tacked-in a makeshift angle iron brace when I had the floors and firewall all cut-up. Not sure if it made a difference -

Looks promising!

Replacing a lower door skin
A-man930 replied to A-man930's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I lack the time, willpower, and storage space to go hunting down more parts. I'll make these work -
Resurrecting this because of the 4 doors in my garage, only one of these didn't break during removal... Is there no new replacement available?

Replacing a lower door skin
A-man930 replied to A-man930's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
The FSM excerpt I have calls out seam sealer there, but I'm not sure I see any evidence of it on these particular ones. You make a compelling case for at least peeling it apart to investigate. Now I just need to figure out how to reach in there... -

I should clarify - the goal is another rust-free 20 years on the road as a daily. This is a full "resto mod" and I'm making every reasonable effort towards that. No band-aids or halfway repairs - particuarlly regarding metal or body work. -

How do you propose I reach both sides with this approach? -

A-man930 replied to A-man930's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I already bought doors and I noticed this minor rust after the fact, but they're in way better shape than my originals so whatever. Ultimately, I'd rather spend the time and effort fixing these, and I have my doubts that many local salvage doors won't have this issue brewing anyway. Painting is not an issue. -

Hard to believe I've missed this thread. Excellent work!

Well, the 2K tubes went a lot farther than I anticipated. Lots of lessons learned when applying them - most of which I'm sure I'll forget by the next time I do this on something

A-man930's box-tube rockers
A-man930 replied to A-man930's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Rockers were one of the initial reasons this truck went under the knife - then they end up being the LAST thing buttoned up before primer. Strange how things go like that.
