Mike, I installed everything in my doors on the bench with them laying outside down. Appropriate padding to protect the paint of course. It made it easier to get to than I think it would have with the doors mounted on the truck. If your doors are not rigid unless on the truck, then something isn't right.
Self adhesive weatherstrip sure would have been easier to deal with than using weatherstrip adhesive, but I managed to get that done (also with the door laying on the bench)
