Door Limiter Kit for '74 Weld In (1 Viewer)

[bamelanc]

Is the metal of this inner door skin thick enough to cut and weld in the door limiter? It's the SOR door stop limiter repair bracket. 124-14-BRKT

Any special instructions on welding it in?

If you have welded sheet metal before, this should be easy. But, you need a wire feed welder (preferably gas shielded) and some experience. If this is your first welding project, experiment on something else of a similar gauge first.

Thanks you for your reply.

My uncle owns a body shop, I was going to bring it to him. Just wanted to make sure it was straight forward.

So far so good. They are working on sanding it down and color matchin.

Finished up! Paint they used was about a shade or two lighter than factory as you can see against the door/doorjamb. Overall they did a good job and they've documented the coloring for future projects.

My doors look very similar to your before pic (same color too!). This project is on my winter list.
Looks good.
