7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a center of the second aperture is disposed on a fifth plane and the free distal end of the front portion is disposed on a sixth plane, a distance between the fifth plane and the sixth plane being between 0.1 inches and 0.5 inches.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anticorrosive coating is a powder coating including one of an epoxy, polyester, fluoropolymers, and urethane, and the anticorrosive coating has a thickness between 0.0005 and 0.0120 inches.

9. A hanging vehicle door system, comprising:

a vehicle door having a window opening with a peripheral elastomeric seal, and an upper slot disposed adjacent the elastomeric seal and configured to receive an upper edge of a window pane of the vehicle door when in a closed position;

wherein the rear portion is disposed on a first plane, the base portion is disposed on a second plane, and the front portion is disposed on a third plane, and the first plane is oriented parallel with the third plane and orthogonal with the second plane, and

wherein the rear portion has a maximum width and a first length, the first length defined by a distance between the proximal end and the distal end of the rear portion, the base portion has a second length defined by a distance between the proximal end of the rear portion and the proximal end of the front portion, and the front portion has a third length defined by a distance between the proximal end and the distal end of the front portion, and the first length is greater than the second length and the third length,
