Door hinge pin kits

Door hinge pin kits - 06/07/08 01:57 AM

Hi, all-

I hear that there are door hinge pin kits available for '69 Chargers - they're supposedly those 'Help!' kits you get at most car part stores. I'm unable to find a part number though for my car- does anyone know what kit I need?

Thanks!
David

Cool- this is good to know. I understood that the Help kits used the bushings but if they have wear problems I'd rather do it this way. Thanks!

- I order the kit and the bit/reamer from RestoRick about a month ago. Parts still haven't arrived yet

and I can't get any replies from them. I can only assume they are busy - but I can wait with much anticipation until the parts come in.

I've been having problems with receiving emails and didn't get notification of paypal payment.
First email I've seen regarding this order having a problem was Saturday at 11am when I was out of town.

Order will be shipped Monday.
I apologize for the confusion.
Orders typically go out within 24hrs of receiving payment.

Thanks,
Rick

No problem - you have a very high reputation

and "stuff" happens. I am not worried or aggrivated at all - plenty of time.

You may want to check your web page - when I used it for email the address bounced...

@G_T: let me know how the kit works out for you- I'd certainly be interested in hearing your experiences about it!

As long as we are on the subject...what is the situation with the factory lower door hinge pins and replacing them? Did they come out of the factory with no bushings?

Yeah - looks like metal on metal on my 70. Mine aren't too worn, but it does have play and makes alignment of the door no fun at all.

Also the little star wheel that keeps the door open at certain angles has worn a good way thru the spring. Makes a nasty groan when using the door.

I think it's a case of lowest bidder.
