    I'm picking up some spare power doors out of a 98-99 Tacoma. Does anyone know how to remove it? I can't seem to find the factory service manual for it

    What trouble are you having, seems like the bolts on the door hinges are it? Or are you referring to the wiring harness

    Remove screws and pull up the plastic door sills so you can remove kick panels

    Remove plastic kick panels(10mm bolt or two and pull aft)

    Unplug door wiring harnesses and feed through body with door open.

    with door open.....Remove the plastic cover for the door checker at the body and remove bolt(I think 10mm)

    Remove four 12mm hinge bolts at body,not door(top one last) with someone holding door(pretty heavy)

    Got the doors, thanks guys!

    The hinges were a paint to get off the body, I had to partially remove the fenders.

    Glad you got it. They can be a pain at times, especially getting them reinstalled, no funny sounds and the gaps looking nice. Hopefully Oassener helped ya out some!
