Best practice in removing '54 F100 doors I am restoring a '54 F100. Looked at door hinges and access to the pillar 6 bolts or the access door on the door itself (6 bolts). It seems that the door bolts make an easier removal. Any advice out there? Thanks.

Re: Best practice in removing '54 F100 doors Did the door bolts on my project. Makes it so much easier to reinstall too.

Re: Best practice in removing '54 F100 doors If the doors fit good now, take some pics of the bolt locations on the door for easier reassembly.

Re: Best practice in removing '54 F100 doors If you drill an 1/8th inch hole thru the door side of each hinge into the door before disassembly, you can use them to index the door into the original position when reassembling.
