The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Panels 'N Burbs 47-54 clam door hinge???

ok so to not hijack bigtonys search for hinges thought i would ask here...



On the 47-54 clam doors is there really any difference in the hinges in respect to different years???


According to the parts list, yes.

1947/50:

The hinges are Left upper end gate #3809089 & Right upper hinge #3809090 These are complete units. ([color:#CC0000 ]

These are the repair parts:

They also need: PIN upper door hinge link #3800503
&
Washer #3800504
&
Bearing #3800505

[color:#CC0000]1951/54:[/color]

The hinges are Left upper end gate #3808047 & #3808048 I believe these are complete units too, plus they need to have the housing installed on the Suburban to work. (Tentatively confirmed, I have a NOS one to compare.) Stamped on the end gate side of the hinge is #3808059 and the tag is gm3808047

These are the repair parts:

They also need: PIN, hinge link upper #380864 (2)
&
WASHER,hinge link upper #3808065 (4)
&
HOUSING hinge left & right upper #3808067 & #3808068
&
SPACER,#33808066 (2)



I have been told that there is a difference on the upper hinges but noone seems to know what they are,,, then when talking to a guy last night i was told that its the lower hinges that are different but he didnt know whet the diff was,,,,,,

The lower hinges are the same:

1947/54:

Lower half on body #3808361 (2)
&
Left lower end gate #3807971 & Right lower end gate #3807972

I know there is a pin and acorn nuts to put the two halves together, but I did not find them on the list.

The next question will be: Is there any differences in with the upper and lower tail gates between the years?

The answer according to the parts list is no.

1947/54

END GATE :

Upper half #3808211

END GATE:

1947/54

Lower half: #3807954
