I was on Klassic Fab website and he has the metal to repair most of my bus, but I was wondering what is the determining factor of a high hinge and a low hinge, is it measured from the top hinge or low hinge and what would I look at on my doors to figure that out

Your bus has high hinge cargo doors.

The upper hinge is what determines this. A low hinge door has the upper hinge located further down, much closer to the belt line.

Look at the distance from your upper hinge to the belt line compared to the upper hinge to the belt line on this bus.
