40 series barn doors

Gday
Can someone out there with barn doors on a 40 put up the measurements.
I'm hoping a barn door seal will sorta suit a one piece lower tailgate.
Cheers

I've busted shitloads of non genuine ones over the years.
A wise man once told me when it comes to things like axle dowels and nuts and wheels studs and things ONLY use genuine.
Never looked back.

Fellas you might be better off to right click and save to desktop and wait for the whole file to open in a web page too.

By the way I'd like to thank Biders for a ticket and the chance to get that footage.

You can get away with taking a couple out of the pack which will improve the ride. It's a way of life with a 40!
