Quick Hinges (1 Viewer)

Does anyone know if the Quick Hinges are still being made? I ordered a set from MC design offroad in July, They took my money but never sent them, I have emailed them multiple times but never had any response. Thanks

I’m waiting on my top, then I’ll be installing mine! They look GREAT!

I need some fresh pics of the updated hinges mounted if anyone has any to share.

Two more sets packed for shipping tomorrow. One will be a first to Central America going to Nicaragua.

I’m away from home for a week of Mil stuff, but I have a lot of parts that I can quickly assemble into sets next week.

RS out today and a Door Half set going out tomorrow…

Another set off to my son’s new general neighborhood.

I forgot to update about the pups.

Our little King Charles Cavalier picked this guy out if the litter and were super glad! He’s a great pup and will be a great truck and trail dog.

I took him to work yesterday to start work on kennel training, but he ended up hanging out with me in the office.

We named him Dreki, which is Old Norse for Dragon. I was looking for a tie to my AD base with the U-2 Dragon Lady. I often find myself using the Strongbad voice about Trogdor the Burninator.

I have a lot of hinge parts waiting for new truck homes. New trimmed bolts came in just before Grainger sent me bushings.

I need to get a set so I can have them painted at the same time as the doors.

PM sent.

Purchase made!

Stinkin' bank! I was hoping to slide this purchase under the radar, and the fraud prevention department called to confirm the purchase. I was in the restroom and didn't have my phone with me, so when I didn't answer they called my wife! Her comment was "I'll be glad when that money pit is finished."

 

[Augustiron]

Tell her the money was better spent increasing the value of "the pit" than disappeared in the stock market!

Parts on their way...Thanks @FloridaLife

 

[FloridaLife]

Wow, that was quick! The hinges arrived today. Quick service, they look great, and were packed VERY well. There could have been glass or something fragile in the box and it would have arrived undamaged. Thank you!

I recently learned the hard way about packaging when someone recently received an empty torn box. I re-sent them parts asap.

Never underestimate the savage baggage handlers. LostTrak does drive by deliveries up here - they drive to the end of the pavement (on a good day) and toss the package out as they make the uturn. I ask them to take my address out of their system and I check to make sure every order I make doesn't use them or I don't order from that place.

I have a huge supply of cardboard supply from my day job and am basically building complete inner liners for the USPS boxes and lots of tape.

I spent 30+ years in supply chain logistics, 22 of those years with the largest supply chain logistics on the planet so I've seen it all. Most of our Disrtribution Centers were / are 1.5 million square feet with almost 20 miles of conveyor lines and 400 dock doors. We would flow about 25,000 cases per hour out the door, I've seen more damaged freight than you can imagine, from the inbound receiving docks to the outbound shipping docks and in between. We had a team of people that all they did all day every day (and night since it is a 24 hour operation) is to sort through damages, clean up and save what they can, and toss the rest. LOL, when I was a young man, 21, I was an unloader on the receiving dock and I was unloading a shipment of fragile glass items that were all floor loaded (not on wooden pallets). The driver had to assist since it was a floor load, and that REALLY ticked him off, so he grabbed one box and threw it hard into the floor of the trailer and we could hear it shatter and he said "I hope every one of these break!" So I picked one up and held it up over my head and smashed it into the floor and looked at him with a big smile and said "Me too, because you only get paid for the amount of undamaged ones that are processed in on that dock, and the fewer there are, the less work it is for me to stack them on the pallets." So I grabbed the next box, held it up over my head, and just as I started to slam it down he grabbed my arms and said "Hold on a minute, I changed my mind."
