Door hinge help
Hi all,
Long time lurker first time poster here, I have to say this place is a great source of info for keeping these old girls on the road! My problem is that my drivers side door opens way to easily and has little to no resistance, if I open the door on a slight slope it flys open. My hinges were new when the truck was restored some years ago now, and the door shuts perfect and has no sag. Is it possible to replaced the bushings circle in the pic below with out replacing the whole hinge? as I would have to paint and replace the hinge again. Also a picture of the truck in original factory colour

Re: Door hinge help
I thought there was a thread on here about using pieces of brake pad on the door stop, but I don't have it in my subscriptions,Try searching the site yet?

Re: Door hinge help
IIRC they are not reproduced. Like Redline novdog said, do a search, you will find the thread he is talking about.

Re: Door hinge help
Thankyou very much, I did try searching for it. When you don't know what the part is called it makes for a frustrating time trying to search for it!
how to you attach the pad material to the retainer plate? Glue? |
