rejeep Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I think I'm getting some sag on my 86.... Top door seal isn't stopping the water like it should... I know this topic has prob been beat to death, but have people found luck with shims or swapping out the pins?
mnkyboy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 If they are worn the best thing is to weld on another one. FYI, XJ rear door hinges will work and are typically in great shape since the rear doors usually get a lot less use.
JFAComanche6 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 My friken top driver door hinge is busted off too and my door sags pretty bad, what do yoou think a body shop would charge to reattach it?
mnkyboy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I guess it depends how much you can do yourself. I imagine if you pulled it apart it would be cheap to have someone fix it. All you have to do is pull the header panel off then take off the fenders to access the hinges.
rejeep Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 yeah I think shims are more in line for the use my trucks gets..
mnkyboy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Make sure you inspect the hinges,usually they pull away were they weld to the body. If that happened then you pretty much just have to get in there and fix it.
