The easiest repair for your 3rd gen camaro / firebird sagging door problems

This is one of the best kits out there right now. It was featured in Chevy High Performance and you can also get it from Classic Industries. The instructions are pretty detailed on the site, and there's a ton of info on this site (). I'm going to try and install mine in the next few weeks, it doesn't look fun...

Re: Hinge pins

Support the door from underneath well.The spring can be a real bear so I would buy the spring tool.You will be soooo glad you did.
Here's were I bought the parts when I did it. = http://www.top-downsolutions.com/bod...f8d6f9cbc38cba
