4th gen, door hinge or pin

My drivers side door has a weird angle I suspect that the bushing on the lower hinge is the culpret(worn badly). Can I replace the pin or bushing without replacing the whole hinge. I ask because the dealer only lists the full hinge. Thanks

It's easier to replace the entire hinge. You have to remove it anyway to do the pin, properly. And it's probably cheaper.

The hinge is over $100 at the dealer here. I dont mind doing the work. I just need to know where I could get the pin and bushing if it is available.

Use to be able to get them from GM. I suppose now your going to have to try the Kit Car and Hot Rod suppliers.

Re: 4th gen, door hinge or pin

Thanks for the info. The dealer I spoke with said they were not available, maybe if I had the part number. After doing some reasearch I think my main problem is that the door was not aligned properly.... it doesnt sag the door just sticks out a bit on the bottom and is to far in at the top. I am going to take the fender off tomorow and see if I can adjust it properly.

That was fast, thanks. Considerably less than the dealer wants here.

Re: 4th gen, door hinge or pin

Actually I got the door to sit perfectly just by adjusting it. I could still use a new pin but its not an immeadiate concern anymore.

The part numbers to replace the pin and bushings are as follows:
Bushings: 20058035 need 2 $6.51
Pin: 20262500 $1.62
Got the part numbers from a Pontiac dealership. Chev dealer told me I could only get the hinge. Dealer verified these part numbers with my VIN.
Mine "should" be at the dealership today. The ice has delayed delivery of the parts. They had to be ordered.

Let us know if those are the right parts you end up getting, ok? I may need to refer back to this post someday.

Well, the parts came in, but it was a very short pin like 1.5" and the bushings are metal. I did not buy them. I had them order in a hinge for me and will compare the parts with the hinge. If to big of a PITA, I may just replace the hinge.
