Just wanted to give you guys a little more detailed look at our tube doors.
First off, the tubing used in our doors is 1.75" x .120 wl. DOM tubing. All the tubes are capped with our own 1.75" straight cut tube caps and tigged on. Cleaner and simpler, no need to grind it down, just a quick buff.
Hinge Plate!! This is a big one for me right here. Our hinge plate is 7ga. steel. One piece from top to bottom and catches all 6 of the factory bolt holes. The hinge plate really needs to be solid from top to bottom. We also weld on 6 top lock flange nuts to simplify the installation. The 3 main tubes of the structure go all the way through the hinge plate and are welded both inside and out.
Latches. Our latches are a passenger compartment safety rated latch. They are mounted the way a safety rated passenger compartment latch needs to be mounted. The latch itself is pinned and welded to the latch plates. Latch plates are welded to the tube. We also supply a new zinc plated strike pin to go with your new doors. The strike pin has wrench flats on it rather than a torx like the factory.
Here's a shot of all the pieces and parts that go into a set of tube doors.
And one more, all finished. The last piece we put on is our signature hinge cover. 14GA. HRCQ P&O steel. Logo'd and buffed out after welding to make the finish work easier for you. The bottom of the "SKIN" wraps the tube. All the points where tube meets the skin, they are welded together to prevent hooking on clothing or what have you.
If you have some questions, ask away. That's the purpose of this thread.
They are priced at $345.00 pair and UPS is delivering them for an average of $85.00. Ships in a single large box.
