Aluminum door hinges for a,b and e bodies - 02/21/17 06:18 PM

Hey everyone, I know there's a thread here already and I wrote to SD concept and have been emailing Jerry back and forth. He says they can make them just need to know what options everyone wants on them and group buys would be the only way to get them started.

To keep cost down a spring would add more but it would be a hinges with a removable pin.

I could use E body lift off.
Keep us posted if they decide to go ahead with these, or I may have a friend do them on his cnc mill.

These Aluminum hinges depending on how they are designed and constructed may support a lightened and gutted steel door, but the weight of a full functioning steel door with glass may prematurely wear out any bushings in the hinge or the hinge itself may fail after a while. Just a thought.

I see your points on a full steel door but I was thinking more along the lines of a gutted steel door.

Not sure about the others, but a gutted steel E body door with enough structure left to hold the window and not be flimsy, will still weigh probably 80 pounds

Okay well Jerry will need a set of a body hinges when he's ready. But he also needs a consensus on how many people will in fact buy them. As soon as he gets some projects done he will get on these and have them made up.

Hes not sure on a price yet. Can anyone tell me what fiberglass door weights for both a and e bodies as well as steel doors?

Re: Aluminum door hinges for a,b and e bodies - 02/28/17 02:25 AM

I have a 70 Cuda with fiberglass doors. I don't think they weigh 15 pounds with windows, door latch, outside handle and factory hinges.

Re: Aluminum door hinges for a,b and e bodies - 02/28/17 03:38 AM

I made another thread with a different poll. Jerry wanted to know how many for each body type and steel or fiberglass doors.
