doors

[el dub]

Well my driver side door has a little sag. I've heard that you can replace the pins?, and this will be cured. How did you guys fix your sagging doors? I am having a hard time finding complete hinges that aren't aftermarket. I did see a set on ebay for over 200 dollars. Is that a fair price? thanks for any help.

The drivers door on our 69 sagged a bit too. You can buy hinge rebuild kits or buy a new hinge. We bought a new hinge and its like closing the door on a new car...................you know that sound - "snick". No slamming, no rattling, no bounceback just a satisfying "snick".

I rebuilt mine using a kit. It was fairly easy and cheap to do!

Before there were and even after sometimes, hinge repair kits for the Mopars, I just simply greased the hell outta what I had left, and then shimmed the lower hinge where it bolts to the door with washers..Works great..

The new kit comes with oversized pins & bushings, It is cheap and easy to do so you might as well do it right the first time

Did you have to do any drilling with the kits, and do you know a good supplier of them?

Yes, you have to drill the holes slightly larger. The kit should tell to the size bit you need so you can pick it up at any hardware store.

There you go. MUCH cheaper than getting new or rebuilt hinges!

Does anyone sell replacement springs? Not the s style springs.
