You can also use the shocks that are weighted at 100lbs. It should be enough to make the door move easily. I think that is what they use with the doors for the SUV. Also see If you can build them so the open as close to 90deg as possible. SWEEEET!

In your other thread you stated that you could get them done for $250... And, to be totally honest, if you can do it and sell it for approximately that price, I will definitely purchase a kit.

Shall we start a list of potential buyers?

1. SilverSpear
2. deruvian

I think that this will be much more difficult and trying than most other cars, but good luck. If you can get it done, I'm down. I'm still about 50% skeptical, though... Which, in my experience, is just enough confidence to try anything once.

(I will also be tempted to fly over to Lebanon and personally make you a sandwich).

guys one thing, labor is cheap over Lebanon, and we have a place over here where they manufacture anything you want... the mechanism is not what worries me but rather finding the struts (I still need to search for it) I will also be installing two struts rather than one ... but still waiting for the measurements... Seraph help !!

Door, fender clearance, posible door swing, door weight, possible door movement.

Couldn't he measure most of these things on his own?

Also, SilverSpear, I have noticed in the past that it is easier and more effective to PM Lwin (Seraph).

I have already PM's Seraph (2 days ago) to send me the measurements as he have stated, but still he didn't yet....
I don't wanna go though it until "I see a road ahead" in this issue... if not, I will have to walk blind, make a lot of mistakes and probablyend up with a doorless SVX !!! just Joking !!! no really I wanna do it right...

Does anybody seeing Seraph online in these couple of days??

Whenever I've tried to ask Seraph a question, either by asking in the forum or sending him a PM, I usually have to wait a few days to hear back from him. Be patient. He's just a busy guy I suppose, but he'll get around to you eventually I'm sure.

Have you tried sending a PM or email to njboys808? He was the original scissor door guy. Last I heard, he had his SVX up for sale, but he might still have some measurements, etc. Since he probably doesn't use these forums anymore, I would send him an email.
