title should say "i want 170 + degrees".....sorry

so i hope i got you excited, but why doesnt Ford do this.
My truck is in desperate need of paint due to Bushwacker fender flares and lost of trees scraping the side

SO back to my point, a green light to possibly cut and weld myself some cool factor like chev and nissan has...





vs F150


has anyone solved this problem yet?
any ideas?

 

I'm sure with enough fabrication skills, you could get the hinges used on the Chevy and put them on your F150. Try a junkyard.

 

wish my doors did that, would make loading grocerys and stuff alot easier in parking lots

 

The Silverado at work (2008 model) opens like the one in the picture, and it really isn't a complicated setup. There are basically two hinges, the first opens the door to the 90* position and the other takes over from there and opens it the rest of the way.

 

Probably going to end up costing more than it's worth.

 

It's a nice idea but my concern is durability. Sometimes my Supercab is awkward in tight quarters but I know the Ford hinge will last the next 30 years. Not so sure about the Nissan and Chevy hinge.

 

I wish my truck looked like a corvette

 

So it'd look like this?

 

Perhaps someone should manufacture fold-out hinge adapters that connect to the factory ford hinges.

You're definitely onto something.

 

Just do a suicide door kit on the front door

 

If you want doors like that, buy that truck. If you want a dual swing tailgate, buy a ridgeline. If you want a "Rambox", buy a Dodge. But if you wanna put it in drive and move forward, buy a FORD.

 

Well Put!!!
You may not have ALL the fancy features, but what you do have is quality!

 

idk about chevy's but the first time i opened up the doors in the back i thought something broke, the doors dont open up very smooth at all... and kind of jump around.

i do like the feature tho... its very cool.. im surprised FORD didnt INVENT it... let alone start doing it.. instead, they invented the Man Step.

 

well put

 

The biggest problem with this is, well, the truck that comes with the doors.
