TS888 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 You can buy the framing from YRM Metal Solutions, and have a welder fix up the frame. Then reskin and you're into a more or less new door for much less than the going rate. The lift handle doors use the frame profile like a SIII, not the later Defender style.

mepeefreelee Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 yeah i tryd mm4x4 they said they were having problems with there supplyer. the frame looks good considering its age i think its had a bit of work done its more so the skin it looks like its been shot with a 12 bore its that bad.

TS888 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I feel your pain, I'm in the process of prepping my 110 for paint and the lower door skins are thin and holey. I'm considering just skinning the bottom 3 or 4 inches with chequer. Evil, I know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
