Door Hinges

The door hinges I have are worn and the part that keeps the door from opening too far is broke. New ones from LMC are 35 bucks and i dont care to spend that much. Where can I get rebuild kits or what else can i do?

Any board vendor can get you a rebuild kit, your about a week late, I

hinges

I would go with new ones. I recently bought a new 67-71 door shell and when i tried to put it on I notice my hinges were about as worn out as my patience for my boss. First I tried to use the old ones but the door wouldn't sit right. I decided to buy some new ones which helped but since I have limited experience in that area I ended up wearing out the bolt threads on the door. Now I'm going to bring it to the body shop to get properly adjust before I f*ck it up even more. Moral of the story is to buy new so you don't need to revisit the problem later.

Can the door hinge stops be replaced without removing the hinge?
