Re: Project "Jezebel"

The next project was the captive nuts in the "A" pillar were getting stripped from all the removal and installation of the door during fitting. I wish I would have done this when I had the "A" pillar open but oh well.

Had to cut an access into the "A" pillar pocket to access the cage that held in the captive nuts that the door hinges bolts to.

You cant see it too well here but the threads were pretty worn so the only option was to weld it shut and tap it back out.

Welded, drilled, and tapped for the 3/8-24 bolts.
