I need a little help with the hinges on the doors.
On Page 45-06 figure two shows the left side door hinges. A close look
at the WD 1019 L and R show that they are not welded on square to their
hinge bracket. This effectively makes them "ramp up" towards the
center between the hinges. I installed the opposite right side with the
L hinge up front and the R hinge aft. It "looks like" it levels out the
WD 1019 hinges. Is this an optical illusion or is the correct
orientation ramped up and sloped up towards the middle?
Thanks in advance for the replies.

It is certainly not even, but if you install them just as the drawing
explains, you should be fine. We have seen that it sometimes requires shims
underneath the hinge on the cabin top to keep the door flush with the cabin
top at the top of the door, but YMMV. Again, if you follow the drawings
exactly for which part is front/back and inboard/outboard then it should
work fine. Make sure to mark the parts well so you don't mix them up later
on, but if you have gotten this far, then you already know that.
Do not archive

It is tricky. You have to watch the diagrams verrrrrry carefully. Essentially the hinge pins line up in a straight axis with each other. This is a classic case of not measure twice cut once, but measure 6x - cut 1x.
I am slogged down in this phase right now. I decided to hold off on fastening my cabin top. I installed the rear windows and I am putting the cabin top liner on (Fliteline) before I put the cabin top on.
