If I run glass Ill use plexi...The void Im just going to make some bumpers like those that are used for hoods
I plated the backside of the hing area & tonight I start the body work on the gate....Maybe even get it painted tonight also..
Heres the gate painted...http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v137/MUDDOG4X4/Ex%20TTC%20BRONCO/Tgate.jpg
Ok... I finaly took pix last night of my latches & what I did to deal with the "gap" from using the truck gate...
For the bumpstop I used a bumpstop off a car that was in my scrap pile... I cut the stud off & cut it in 2.. Then drilld it out & used ready rod & nuts to mount it... Its totaly ajustable to take uop the rattling of the gate & the latches...
