If anyone plans on doing this at home do NOT USE DORMAN BUSHINGS YOU WILL END UP WITH THEM CRUMBLING APART!!!
Just wanted to say thank you for a great video. Just completed this job and your guide made all the difference.
While this guy got lucky, I would highly advise against hammering in the bushings, because they shatter easier than your hopes and dreams! Use a bolt and nut to "pull" them in squarely.
Have never seen a hinge pin clip as shown
Do not buy cheap bushings. Ac delco or cuningham machine are the only ones that dont crumble when you look at them
Please sort of video I learned something appreciate it
Thank you sir!
Does it apply to Suburbans of the same year
Even with that tool to compress the spring I can get it to fit
Awesome video thanks
Hey it's the 1A auto guy
Hey @TRQ can i use the exact same pieces you uses in this videos to fix a 1988 chevorlet c1500 door hinge
My compliments. Clear, concise, good camera angles and explanations.
Very well explained. Thank you
I need the spring tool name please
how come he can hit the new bushing with a hammer and they dont just fucking shater but if i so much as drop one of the bushing and let them hit the ground, they just fucking shater into pices
Bought a pair, the bushings were some type of brittle pot metal. Did not last.
Where do you get parts with quality bushings?
I bought these and they didn’t fit my truck
Idk wher you got your kit but the ones in your link are exactly like Dorman. They were like they’ve been made of clay.
I tried your directions- watched your video many times – not so good – bushings shatterd when tried to put it an didn't really tap on them like u did – the wiring boot is right in the way an difficult to work around – the jack had to be moved up an down many times- overall nothing happened like it did for you- nothing- left it an gonna take to a bodyshop- learned my lesson about utube videos
Bet they didn’t last 3 months using a hammer to knock those bushings in.
Does the third pin, that helps control the door return, have to be replaced when replacing the hinge pins and bushings? Done! Thanks. Your video helped a lot.
This is how you make an instructional video.
