I took the doors off of my 76 and now it is a mess to get back on. My neighbor mentioned that there is a part you can put on the door and the body so the hinge just goes on and off- no bolts, etc... It just slides on some bolts that are mounted to the door frame.

I have searched everywhere for something like this- does anyone have any history or ideas on this?

You can modify your hinges to work as quick release hinges.
Once you re-align the doors and they fit nice...
Cut off the top knuckle of the hine on the door jamb side so when you look at the hinge the pin in sticking up with nothing above it.
Now you can slide the door on or off any time. It will not come off if its latched.
Trust me its a free modification that works!

I can send some photos once I find them...
Wheel it like you stole it!
