Removing Doors-NOT



The only reason you should touch the bolts holding the doors to the 
hinges or the hinges to the body is if there was damage to a door. The 
adjustments nessesary to PROPERLY reinstall the doors is way beyond 
most people's abilities. The doors are also heavy and it is very easy 
to damage them in removing or reinstalling. To remove them just to 
work inside them is not worth the effort or the risk of damage. Unless 
someone has disturbed the door hinge adjustments they are usually 
better left alone. IMHO it is UNSAFE to remove the doors without 
releasing the torque on the torsion bars. Refer to Workshop manual 
P:02:06 Door,Left or Right Removal. You will see that it instructs you 
to remove the torsion bar in preparation to removal of the door. If 
you are not comfortable working on the torsion bars you have no 
business removing the door! Although you can remove the doors without 
touching the torsion bar sometimes there is a RIGHT way to do things 
and a wrong way, you be the judge.
