New lower door hinge

Just received the lower door hinge from hawks. It looks much better than my original. I'm not positive but it seems that the front hole in the new hinge that bolts to the car is not in the same place as the original. Guess I'll find out in a couple days.

Put the door on today and it fits great! I had already replaced the upper hinge bushings and still had some movement. This is exactly what it needed.

Dang, mine aren't that bad but I think im just going to buy the whole thing like that and replace it. Looks good and glad to hear it all fits right.

Re: New lower door hinge

The bushings for the old hinge are not in the picture because the hinge was worn to the point that they wouldn't stay in. I'm really happy with the way it fit. I was afraid that it would be off.
