Door Re and Re , any tricks or tips?
Hello ,
I am looking to replace my two passenger doors, I have two door shells, which I had repainted to repair any dings and scratches that were there. My question is to anyone who has done it, how long approximately did it take? I am planning a weekend to complete the task. Any one have any tips or tricks to make it go easier?? I am hoping to wax and polish the door shells before i put any of the parts from the old doors back on. (the paint is over a month old already and well cured!) I do have a Bentley manual and plan on following the directions in there along with the TIS online stuff. I know to disconnect the neg terminal before removing the airbag (which will be one of the last things i remove before the actual door itself, as to avoid any SRS error codes. I think i will be fabricating a bracket to hold the door and mount it to my transmission jack. that will make the attachement a bit easier, I suspect that the "loaded doors" will be quite heavy (the empty shells are pretty heavy already!) so a jack which can tilt would come in handy when i attach the doors! I can only imagine how many small clips and fasteners i will need to replace! anyhow, i plan on photographing the adventure! and will post the results after! thanx all
