i went to the local lowes, got some 1 1/4 electrical conduit, made a simple yet effective design and welded it up, the latch is actually an "s" hook, top bar welded to the top of the hook, lower bar fits into the lower part of the s, upper part of the s fits over the stock striker pin, lift the upper bar 1in or so and it swings open, close it over and it drops right into place and stays there, slid some transmission cooler hose over the s part to keep it from rattling, door pins are simple curved head bolts tacked in place and held to the stock doorpin holes with wingnuts
