The Build and Adventures of Bearbait

Finally got around to doing some long needed maintenance. Changed the oil, fixed a few rattles, and tightened down the door hinge nuts that have been coming loose and this happened Image1548622773.731910.jpg I didn’t even tighten it that hard and it spun the bolt right off... has it ever happened to any of you?
 
I cross threaded one of mine few years ago, so I removed them all. Haven’t had them in there for last 3 years. Makes taking the doors of quicker lol
 
^^Same. I put them back on a time or two when I first bought my Jeep. I took Overlanders advice and threw them in my tool box right next to those long hardtop bolts. Been 3 years since they’ve seen the light of day.
 
Ours never did that. Same as others mentioned, they were never put back on the Jeep. I don't even know where they're at.

Maybe it was cross threaded... I’m not too worried about, just frustrated it happened. I haven’t taken the doors off in a long while lol definitely will this summer!

Hahaha definitely a good idea! One day maybe I’ll have a garage again and can just leave the soft top on!

Glad to hear it’s common to just leave them off [emoji106]

This was on our way to Big Sky, great day for skiing! Probably getting about a foot of snow today!

Definitely one of the best days this season!

At first I thought it was weird to see so many -1’s Image1549338946.990930.jpg

I checked the temperature just a little while later and now saw all these -3’s lol Image1549339058.741669.jpg
