door bar removal
what is an easy way to get these heavy things out? and please dont jump on my case about it i have a roll cage with a door bar i will be fine.
Re: door bar removal
It was a pain in the ***! I had to cut them into two pieces to get them out. Also had to cut the sheetmetal behind the door panel. The up side is, I took out a total of 24 lbs. The doors close all together differently than they used to. Good luck.

Back when I had steel doors, I used a cutoff wheel but also cut a lot of the inner door out which was recovered with some aluminum. Make sure you cover the glass as the sparks will pit the glass.

Re: door bar removal
oops that would have been good to know i have been in there with a cut off wheel im sure the tint looks great at this point. not really worried about the doors closing different because they dont close without slamming them now. anyone ever drill out the spot welds on the hinge side?
