Hello,
I received a set of Quadratec Tube doors for my 2021 JL today. I got the doors and they looked great. I was totally excited. Unfortunately, that is when the problems started. The top Hinge Pin on both doors is too large to slide through the hole in the Jeep hinge that is bolted to the body of the Jeep. My stock doors slide in and out and I never had an issue.
I took some sand paper and gently sanded the Hinge Pins ( not the threaded part ) on both tube doors, in case there was any overspray from the powder coating process. I then lubricated both Hinge Pins and tried to mount the doors, but once again I had no luck. I find it hard to believe this happened. How in the world can the Hinge Pins be too large? I assume all of the JL door hinges are the exact same size.
A gentleman at Quadratec is researching this and I hope to get a resolution soon. If anyone has had a similar situation or has any advice I would appreciate you sharing that with me and the other members.
Thanks,
