I should have been able to figure that one out. Sorry.
I am trying remove the trunions and use the hidden hinges that you weld on to the rear cross sill and the tailgate. I am assuming that since there are two holes in each of the frame rails(one directly above the other) the bolts you refer to are long enough to go thru the entire "C" shape of the frame, in addition to the wood thickness. Is this correct?
If I do remove the trunions,would you agree with my belief that these two bolts would be strong enough to support the weight of the sill and the tailgate (opening and closing) without tweaking the cross sill?
No pressure - just your opinion. Your advice is and always has been greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
