All- decided to make it official. As of 9/14/23 Rubber City Land Cruisers is open for maintenance, restoration, modifications and OEM parts. For now, I’ll be taking one truck at a time with plans of expanding as needed...

I remember asking this question in another thread. Because the door is cut down to match the back the handle for the latch is lower which would think it requires bending the rod or rods if hooking up the lock too. That still leaves getting the...

RevISK, I need to install all of the hardware to open and latch the door closed. Great video on the 40 channel, I borrowed a screen shot.

That corner stood out to me immediately in your photos. I’d probably cut/file to how I liked it then JB weld and then seam seal. The OE doors don’t have much for access so your black rectangle would probably be fine, but I’m not exactly clear...

Seam sealer is the right idea.

They are still available from the dealer, might not be that much more than finding a used pair!

Anyone have any suggestions on where to cut these doors to install the door regulators? Should the black rectangle allow me to reach everything?

I also wish there were the metal tabs to install the door limiters.

Spot welds and top corner need a tiny bit of attention.

I'm not liking how this inside corner looks and would like to use a file to ease the sharp corner a bit. What would be the best way to fill in this small hole and make this edge smoother? Seam sealer?

Some posted about a concern of the door not being flat on top but there is plenty of room to rest your arm. I held up my Bestop door for comparison.

I was hoping to spend the day making a video of the door installation after adding the door regulators but they are going to take some thought and more than a day to accomplish that. I thought about just forgoing the inside regulator and just...

I received my Topnault half doors a few days ago and wanted to post up some pic for everyone and also ask for some suggestions. Overall, I am happy with the quality of the doors, they were packed well and arrived undamaged. I will start with some...

Thank you for all the input. Thought I would update you guys on my truck. I decided to get the truck to Beau Parker at Safari Classics in Hot Springs based on @70fj40 recommendation. He has had it a few days. I am happy to report that the engine...

Love a before and after The rear outside latch was busted. The attempted repair. It’s a tight fit getting the pins and M8 nuts off the pins only to find the new handle holes are too small. Take it back out and drill em… Works like a...

I was about to clean up and install the used acorns that came with the truck when I realized the ones on my trailer are better so I went out to swap them. This was quite a surprise. It was chock full and somehow I escaped

Someone had to do it! LOL! GREAT idea for a thread :) Before: AFTER!

Show us what your 40 looked like when you bought it and what it looks like now. Here is my '70 FST in July 2021 and now.

Now the final step was done! the tubs were coated with electrostatic primer and ready to be packed and shipped! Once they arrived (around next month this time), we plan to always keep one floor demo at our Temecula store. Welcome to stop by and...

HALF DOORS!!! :) I looked online and saw that my order had been delivered to my address so sent a message and found out doors were shipped today. If you ordered doors, they should be on their way. I also see online that they are SOLD OUT!!! I am...

If you are in this same predicament, my skid was altered to accommodate a header by doing more bending than cutting. I think I have a pic of the cut skid stacked with one not "modified." I'll post if I find it.

What are the marks near the hinges the arrows point to? the other arrow is pointing to the side mirror holes, Is it possible to not drill the mirror holes in some doors and give people the option? I would prefer to not have those drilled out in...

I can put something together and see about organizing. I wanted a rear tire/yeti setup - was going to do it for xmas just cuz the $$ to get running - but clearly willing moving stuff around. My bumper is firm purchase
