It's wondering how
Many of you guys take your hinge bolts out for the summer or do you put them back in everytime the doors go back on.

 

I took mine out for the first time a few years ago.

make that the only time.

 

I leave mine out when it warms up for quicker door removal.

 

Took mine off 2 years ago and never put them back.

 

I accidentally sneered one of mine off and during research, I decided it was silly to worry about them. I store the, in the back near the jack.

 

I have not put mine in since I took the doors of last year. Don't worry about them

 

You don't need them. Mine have been out since 2010. On and off gives risk of damage to paint and stuff.

 

If its during the school year when I'd like a bit of theft prevention, I put them back on; but during summer vacation I don't use them. Actually need to pull the hinges and bedline them this summer; hard for me to remove the doors and put them back on without chipping the paint :-(

 

took them off about 2 yrs ago and i'm not even sure where they are actually. A few times during the winter months I like to slightly lift the door and shoot some sort of lubrication into the pins

 

I put mine back on when the doors go back on. I figure if I'm on the trail and rollover, they'll keep my doors on. LOL
