There's nothing (except my first marriage) that a hacksaw, a cutting blade, 2 drill bits, a 4lb hammer and a bottle of Gatorade can't fix!
Like the Tech Tip said - I may never have to rebuild another set of door hinges but, if the rooskies drop the big one and old truck door hinges become the new form of currency well... I'll be the king of my neighborhood!

That might help us to vent and maybe smile a little so that we can become productive citizens, capable of working on these wonderfully challenging truck components.

That is what it took to start up my 76 after sitting through a ND winter.

Well, filled with confidence from my hinge rebuilding chores I think I can make a new one of those. The one on the front edge of the door and the one on the back edge of the door look almost identical. Time to crack open that beer... | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 413 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 413 | I cant disagree, door hinges suck! | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters | | Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 | A well played double negative.
