What are these

[olymon]

It's been forever since I've actually worked in my cruiser. I know, I know.... what's wrong with me. I'm digging through my parts that I stored away waaaaay too long ago. What are these?

They mount on your door hinge when the door is removed and hold the end of the oem door straps

Thread 'Strap doors connection'

So I was lucky enough to get a Fj40 from an original owner and it has these straps that go across the door opening. Does anyone have a picture of how they are supposed to connect near the front hinge. There is a shoulder bolt where they connect to the frame by the door latch.

Oh, OK. I was thinking of making some half doors out of tube and just using stock door latches out secure them. I didn't know they had a safety strap that took place of the door.
