New rear door
As you may remember, my upper rear door hinge was tearing so I replaced it last weekend with the one from vt_maverick's old one that got totalled. The paint is just Rustoleum but it was a pretty close match. I'll put my original back on if I ever get my butt in gear with the lift gate conversion idea I gots rolling around in my noggin.
Here are some pix of the torn hinge.

Only that little bit of metal on the left hand side was still holding it on. I had to lift the far side of the door about 6 inches to close it.

Looks like a really good match.

Wow, your door was really ripping off the hinges. :eek:
My rear door-tire carrier is holding up great and I think it's mainly due to the center support I built. Something to consider for all the other members with tires mounted on the rear door.

Nice paint job, I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't said anything. :thumbup:
