VW Bus Door track installation. Part1 

Nice job keeping that old piece for reference 👍 Keep at it Stephen - you'll get it right - thanks for sharing 😊

I started tackling this lower track installation. I'm basically starting from scratch here. Will be some trial and error !!!!! I think out loud alot lol.... This is part 1.

Outstanding effort. Your hard work is paying off. Nice job!

Lotta variables to what you're doing but I think it's looking great Stephan! 😁👍

Wow...very nicely done my new friend...everything is lookin groovy :) thanks for the update and i pray God may bless you and loved ones...

Looking good,

Very nice sir

You got this !!

Looking good

OCD is good. It is why you are so good. All the jobs you've had needed some OCD. My boss says hello to you and your boss. Hahahaha.

Nice I will have to check it out

Nice welding Stephen . Them sliding doors are heavy

I think you're on the right track now lol, just put a little bearing grease in there and it'll slide better.

Hi Stephan, I have 2 opinions about this episode. 1. You have to be OCD when working something that complex out and 2. Always listen to the boss. Mine has the best ideas and saves me from doing things the hard way. Just don’t tell them about every tool you buy 😂. I think those upstanding tabs on the end of those top hats are weld flanges. Do they mate with that new panel on the inside? They might add more stability to the new panel (the silver unpainted one). This is probably my favorite RU-vid project going right now. Lots of work and it’s looking really good 👍 Complicated for sure.

Hi Stephan,Even of my restoration from my VW T3 Singel Cab is simulair by what you have to do with the fitment of the inner rocker and the door slide part & after that the connection from the outer rocker.I just know for sure the Klokkerholm part dont fitt-Klokkerholm parts you should not go becouse they never fit.so I hope you will manage eny way.What I learnt with my restoration VW is construckted that way you take it apart from the rear to the front and rebuild from the front to the rear again if not it wil not fit.so good luck my friend,looking forward for the next EP-🇨🇦🙏🏻Greetings.Hubertus🙏🏻🇳🇱🇳🇴🍀☮🇨🇦 PS the innerfloor weldes on top from the inner rocker.

Yeah there's multiple things that have to line up, pretty difficult to figure that out I can see that for sure.

Coming up Awesome Stephan! Professional Job!! A good trick is to screw (self tappers) the panels where you want them, to make sure it all lines up then weld it!!! The Inner sill looks like it may be for the other side? The outer sill lip will go under if you did change it.

Never trust replacement parts. They are seldom correct and often wildly off. I deal with earlier stuff but it looks like your inner rocker needs to be lower. I would be surprised if those top lips on the top hat should be there.

I wish I could give advice on this, but on my bus, I luckily didn't have to replace my door slider or rockers. I just had to do small, isolated patches all over that area. I think the guy on the Vagabonders channel did some work on that section? Maybe check that out. Regardless, you are doing all the things I would have thought to do to attempt to figure all that out.

It looks to me like the floor pan should go in first as it looks like it is supposed to go underneath the inner rocker
