Are the hinge pin repair kits still available? Where do you get them? Would any of the Jeep, Ford, or Dodge kits work?
My local auto parts store said they can't even order it.
It looks like my driver door was done, but the passenger door really needs it.
Just found Carguy87's post using GM pins, sounds easy enough, anyone else have another solution
kennedyamerica.com (Did I get that name correct? I'm going from memory here.)
had pins and bushings but it was a good while ago that I bought from him. He was really good to deal with.
www.ramblerparts.com is still listing them.
bushing 23-5487
pin 23-5486
The other thing that you can do is get spare passenger side hinges, and use them for the driver's side. They are the exact same on both front doors.
Will the pin & bushings work on all 4 doors or do you need different pins & bushings for the back doors?
Back doors are a complete differant animal. never needed to resto a rear.or heard of anyone who needed too.
I need door pins, bushings for all 4 doors on the Eagle they are all bad.
There is a bushing in the rear. I am curious if anyone shared that design, or if there is a dinky bushing for it available.
as i said however its different than the front. Nowhere near similar
what mudkicker said,
but the option is there if you have an extra set - or if you find another eagle (junked of course) with the pass front door still there, then it's worth taking off the hinges and exchanging them for your driver's door.
rear doors are another issue. it's kinda rare that they would be also shot.
When I bought front door pins and bushings, or maybe just bushings, from kennedyamerica.com, Mr. Kennedy said he had never heard of anyone needing to re-bush rear doors.
