I have been looking around on Mud and was unable to find any threads regarding the repair/replacement of the door card plastic top bolster piece. Looks like a new 80 series rabbit hole. It started when I did the window motor and door actuator refresh project on my 97 fj80. After removing the door cards a couple of times the plastic is as brittle as potato chips. The truck has lived its whole life is So Cal and this might not be problem in other parts of the country. I spoke to the Australian door card guys and they didn’t have any solutions. I am thinking of a metal solution (bend aluminum) and glue to plastic underneath to support or ABS slurry mix with some aluminum screen material to strengthen.
Anyone already tackle this problem and have any ideas/solutions would be greatly appreciated? Or is someone making replacement pieces?
Thanks for looking!
