Re: NOS Upper Door Hinge Assemblies
I have a question that perhaps you can "sell" me on these. While I like to go NOS whenever I can, is there any difference between these and the reproduction hinges? In other words, are the repops complete crap and are going to be a problem? If so I will probably take a set. Thanks.

Based on some of the pictures I am finding online though, it appears that reproduction hinges' wear material (friction pad) is made of a plastic material. The originals are made of material similar to brake pads, at least in appearance. And to bring out my inner salesman qualities, I will try to sell the idea (total guess ) that the NOS hinge's alloys are stronger/better so you will get less flex....total guess though. |

While I did not purchase one of 402Bowtie's sets, I can add testimonial for NOS. I had a set of aftermarket door hinges a while back. I put them on, and swapped them back with the originals. At the time, all I knew is that they didn't feel right. While they were tighter than the originals, they seemed not to line up like the originals. I couldn't tell if it was because the aftermarket were just new and not broken in like the originals. Later, I purchased a set (upper and lower hinges with same surface rust, which is typical for almost all hinge sets I've seen. It wasn't until I mocked my NOS set up that I found that either I got really good at installing doors (not likely), or the OEM part just simply fit better. I think it's the latter. To treat the surface rust, I just used a chemical agent to remove the rust, and another to convert any remaining rust to an inert compound (that's the black tint). After that, I used a metal etch, and primed, leaving the original factory texture on the metal for the hinge arm and pad in the upper hinge. The other aspect that I like about the NOS set is that they are not super-shiny like the aftermarket ones. The upper hinge arm and pads are recognizably different in texture and color when compared to the originals. So if you're trying to do a stock restoration, that detail might be important to you. Anyway, I'm all for the OEM on the door hinges. But of course, it's all about preference.
