braces inside doors of 69?

[Spartan]

I am just wondering if anyone has had the same issue,  I was going through the inside of the doors and cleaning things up. In L&R doors I found what looks like some window brace connected to a post just hanging loose.  When I pulled the parts out, it looks like the projections (these parts appear to have been projection welded on) pulled through the window rail and the welds popped.  For right now I left them out.  Have any of you had the same problem and what did you do to fix them?

Thanks,

You talking about the bracket with a loop end that goes on the bottom of the vent window arm that goes over a post at the bottom of the door? I had mine tig welded back on.

Those are the ones.  I will probably do the same when I can find someone to do the work.  It must be a common problem.

 yeah if they are the ones i'm thinking of  had to weld mine back on  ,   i just run a inch of mig up both sides

I think they were held in place with a couple of sopt welds only so its common they break off.

Ya, they were projection welded on originally.  They couldn't hold up to the years of door closing. Mine had a piece of foam in the loop, not sure if it came from the factory that way or someones idea of trying to stop a rattle.  I have them saved as a project for this winter.
