I did some research and ordered the aluminum baggage door lid from the Cub doctor. I understand its fairly close to original for this year Cub. I intend to remove the oak deck, door and replace with the aluminum. It was shipped with two side supports but no hinge or directions.

I did read the write up from Clyde on the install just unsure about a few issues.

My questions....what type of hinge or pins where used originally? How can I support the storage bag in a way that can quickly be removed for inspections-maintenance quickly?

Thanks, Kevin
