Sagging door on your 88-98 chevy? Don't buy the auto zone parts

Stay away from the Help parts #38416. I replaced my drivers door in Nov and the lower already failed. The bushings are too brittle and the next one crumbled on installation.

GM has the OEM bushings #16632192 and 93 for $3 each. They also have the pins if you think that you need them. 2 man job that takes an hour if you take your time. Much better now. Found a decent DIY on you tube, best tip is to use a bolt and washer to press the new bushings 3/4 in and then tap them home. Used two jack stands with rags on top to hold the door, wifey balanced it.

Most of the dorman "help" offerings are junk. But stocked because they are low-turnover items, and variety of solutions can be stocked cheaply. Sad, Chinese truth!
