[QUOTE="Flyer58, post: 434199, member: 18629"] Making a little progress with the sill cracks. I'm going with the same mod as the Gaucho Jeep owner did but I'll be backing the sill with 1/2in square tube instead of the 1/2in angle only because I have a ton of it in stock. Also I'll be going the full length of the sill where he only added about of foot. Judging by the way the door flexes when pulling it closed using the door pull I can see how that crack if formed by stress. I feel it's better to spread that force out over the length of the door. I cut slots for the window trim tabs and drilled holes for a plug weld along the length. The tube has since been painted. Not much space in there to work with. [ATTACH=full]119496[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
