Door hinges loose

Post by eking66756 »

My door hinges are loose so I ordered new pins and bushings from LMC and installed them. Hinges are about as loose as before. Has anyone had better luck wth pins/bushings sourced anywhere else and if so where. Or does anyone have another solution for this problem? Thanks.

If the worn spots were ovalled out to bad the pins will wear out again.

I Did the Same thing. I ended up finding a good pair at the junk yard and rebuilt them. It tightened every thing up. My old ones were just to worn out.

There are oversize bushings available for some applications .
you might have to measure them up.
