Can anyone tell me How to replace passenger DOOR ONLY
Can anyone tell me How to replace passenger DOOR ONLY
I have a 92 RS camaro that has a badly dented door. The door is the only part affected. I have a donor door here, but i cannot figure out the best way to replace it. I have replaced doors before on 3rd gen camaros, but always with the fenders off. I want to save some time as the fenders and nose are all perfectly aligned. What is the procedure to remove the door without taking the fender off, is it possible? I tried putting my socket in but it would not line up enough to turn it. I might be able to get the top three with a smaller socket/wrench but the lower one is going to be tough. The 2 lower on the inside are obviously easy, any help is appreciated.
A lot of patience and a several wreches with different off-set.
Word to the wise.... Cover the back edge of your front fender and front edge of your rear quarter with several layers of masking tape to prevent marring the existing finish upon removal and installation.

still working
Ok,
that is about what i figured, i did not think about removing the inner fender to get the last bolt on the bottom. thanks. I will give it a shot again, although it seems getting the bolts back in will be even harder! It was so easy with the fenders off!

If you do a search it has been covered many times, there is the ladder method, the jack method etc. Do some research and the job can be fairly easy.
i did look
I have actually tried searching for different methods but could not find anything, i tried "door removal", "how to remove door", "door installation". Nothing, but i will try again with your new search words
----------
"ladder method" and "jack method" show no results either. I will keep looking

Here is a quick start, type in door hinges and you will find a ton of info.
