71 westy pop top hinge repair Posted: Mon Nov 16, 2009 9:02 pm     Views: 154      Rating: Not rated

My westy pop top hinges snapped due to all the wear point seizing up (not wearing out). The fix was to weld them back together where they had broken, and adding a piece of 1/2 inch conduilt sleeve on there to give it an extra layer for strength.
