Doorframes

Post by desert1 »

Could somebody send me some Pictures of the Original Doorframes maybe with some measurements where the Handel is located , and Pic. of the Canvas Cover how it is connected or installed on the Frame. I have some Civilan Frames that I want to use for now and canvas to cover them. But I dont now how to put the canvas over the Frame.
Thanks for the Help.

Original door frames were the folding type.

I will try to get you a photo in the next few days.

Anyone else have a photo handy?

Hey,

my door frames are the folding type and don't have the handles installed right now. I need to get the canvas to cover them.

What kind of top are you using? CJ, aftermarket, etc. You may want to install your top and then adjust handles to fit the civi door frames.

Perhaps one of our members has a tape measure and door handy and can give us the dimension for C & D.

From the center of the rod to the center of handle rivet, C=12-1/8"
From that rivet to center of rod on the other end D=13-5/8"
total length = 25-3/4"
