Door hinge pivot popped in my face!
*** dammit guys
I open my driver side door when suddenly the pivot, arm and spring popped out! I found the spring and the arm, but the pivot is an x-file.
Im talking about the pivot, where the little arm connect to the door anchor, where the spring is loaded. Which hold the door open.
I tried GM dealer, they told me the part is 56 cents, but is discontinued. BUt i could buy the hole hinge assembly, for the mesely sum of 110 bucks!!!!
I dont think so!
ANy idea where to get this, i tried local junk yards but no thirdgens, lots of 5.0 thought
