1971 Duster Driver Door Adjustment
The factory never used "bushings" in the lower hinges. They won't last because the lower hinge carries the bulk of the doors weight.
Those "kits" are cobbled together to make the seller a few bucks. Beware that after you Drill out your lower hinge to insert the bushings" ,the hinge is now un rebuildable.
because the hole is too large and the hinge is weakened.
I throw them away all the time when people want their hinges done properly and didn't know that the installing bushings ruin their hinges.
It takes more than a lower pivot pin to rebuild a hinge. The door check rollers are frozen most of the time as well and nobody sells parts for those. Mine are custom made for me.
Want your hinges done right, contact me.
