Door hinge rebuild

dodge68charger · Jan 15, 2014

Im looking for a kit or company to rebuild my door hinges on my 68 charger. Can anyone recommend a kit or reputable place to get mine done. Thanks

What's wrong with your hinges? New ones are available. If it's just a sloppy hinge because the pin is worn, you can get a kit with new pins and bushings. I did mine and now they're tight and free of slop.

I did my own, one was really bad so I welded the holes shut and re-drilled them and put new pins in it. The other that wasn't so bad I just went to the local auto parts store and bought a pin that was slightly larger and drilled it to match the pins. All of the pins I used were in stock items (maybe for different makes) but got the job done and you can't tell the difference.

Where ever you get it, I would recommend changing the springs as well. Grooves wear into them, thus the door doesn't like to stay in position (swings open or shut freely/when not wanted).

Good luck

Resto Rick has new oversized pins and springs in a kit he also sells the reamer
to cut the holes to match the new pins. Check him out on the web

Has anyone got a pic of their lower, driver side door hinge? I'm rebuilding mine and I've seen pics with the spring in different ways. On some pics the curved end is on the top but I've seen a few with the curved end on the bottom.

You could try moparleo over on FEBO. Does a nice job and sometimes he has hinges in stock.

NAPA sells a bunch of different door hinge pin and bushing kits. Does anyone know which ones fit our various Mopars? I think sometimes these kits are sold at a huge premium in other places.

That's because there is no lower left or right side specific door hinge, they're identical. One side is flipped vs. the other, thus a curved spring up top on one side, flat sided on the other.
