Yes, I have a cage and I will have door bars.
So I looked and looked, but can't find a write up on how to remove the factory crash bars on late doors? I have 1/2 of it out, but the door latch side is a puzzlement. So far I've cut them in half and was able to cut out the front hinge side. Can someone help?  |

Just got back from Club NARP where my build thread is and it did not show how I got the bar out just that it weighed 11 pounds. looks almost exactly like yours. I think I used a small grinding wheel. the thread over there is in the garage under Carerror.

I just need to find a good thread on making lightweight windows. I can see why people have different weights of their bars. Some get a bigger bite and leave less material. |
