I just put a new top and side curtains on my M-38CDN and think it is time to finish it up...

Looking for a set of door frames or a full pattern to make a set...

I have 2 sets of M-38A1 / CJ=5 Doors to trade if interested... these have black vynil covers on them...

Thanks...

You've got me thinking. I wonder how hard it would be to fabricate a pair of doors, especially if one wasn't concerned about them folding up. They look like they're maybe 1/4" steel rod, a lot like the rods for the canvas roof frame. If I'm wrong, let me know.....

I am willing to bet they are 3?8" steel rod... and could easily be fabricated if not worried about folding...

Just need a pattern...

Go to the cj2a page. I believe you might be able to find the pattern on that forum.

The military door frame top hinge pin is reversed from the civvy top hinge pin and the civvy door does not get a handle since it's handle is part of the side curtain. The military has a handle mounted to the door.


M38 door

You should try to find a folding set. They stow nice on the Jeep. The fixed ones are a pain Smile
