Like the title says, the door is hard to close. I have 1988 GTA. I kinda have to slam it. It there an adjustment that can be made? Also, the door sags a little bit and has started to wear in the sill jamb..

 

There is a door alignment tool. My uncle has one, we used it to align my doors recently, works great.

Google "door alignment tool"

Replace the hinge bushings and pins to eliminate the sagging and rubbing on the ground effects. Then take and loosen the door striker bolt and set it to match with the door latch height and proper depth. Lubricate the hinges. If you just adjust the striker bolt then the door will still sag and rub on the ground effects.

 

Ok thanks for the info.. Where is a good place to get the parts?

Is this what you are talking about?

That's them. Not sure about the quality of those. I purchased a power window regulator from them that lasted two months.

 

Hmmm, ok what about this? They are 4 times the cost. http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/pr...r-Pin-Kit.html

This is pretty new to me and so I am not sure the best place to get parts..

Thanks for your help..

 

The difference between those is the bushings from hawks have grease fittings. They should last alot longer. Are they worth the money? That's for you to decide.

 

Also, I can tell you that I have the grease fittings on my vert and they are now sagging and need replaced. So they don't last forever.

 

I believe Lon at Top Down Solutions has the parts also. His may be a little higher though.

 

I have used the parts from TDS. Top quality. Doors shut like new!

 

VERY pricy - but worth it!

you can also get Dorman part number 38401 from rockauto.com which is 6.68 and comes with the upper and lower pins and bushings for one door

 

just installed the Hawks door pin kit last week, think they are made by TDS...Fixed my issues, that with new weather striping around the door got rid of my rattles. Hawks/TDS also sell pin kit without the grease fittings for $75. I wouldnt cheap out and use that ebay kit. The upper factory pins need to be grinded off. That was anothe $200 intalled at body shop
