This is to Todd and all Scions,
Instead of welding the door jambs to supports, has anyone con-
sidered fabricating brackets that could be bolted on? The latches
are attaced to the jambs using three 1/4 bolts. My making the supp-
orts with spacer blocks (to clear the flange inboard of the jamb area),
these supports could be BOLTED in the latches location AND the hinge
location on the front post.
IMHO this seems like a more civilzed approach...
