So I'm nearing my breaking point, where I will either start breaking stuff or just start replacing random parts. Bought my 06 LJ that I'm pretty sure never had the doors off.
A couple days ago I broke out the floor jack and started removing my left door, bent the rail in the process. The door finally popped instead of slid off and damaged the rear corner, glass is good and it still seals so I'm ok with it for now
Came out today with the floor jack and different plans, after probably a full can between Liquid Wrench, SeaFoam Penetrant, and WD40 I gave up when is almost started bending again.
So far I have tried the floor jack with at best moderate success, hitting the pin with a punch and hammer, putting some tension on it with more Penetrant and lubricant, and more banging that started removing paint.
I have not tried: heat and removing all the hinges to get these off(would get new ones or junk yard ones blasted and painted first). Can anyone else think of something that I am missing?
