Ok... I hit up 50resto for door hinges, $60 a pop for the lower.

When I look at them, they look like the parts kits they sell for the fox bodies.

Whats the deal, anyone tried replacing the hinges with fox body stuff? WHat about the roller hinge on the bottom?

Drivers door is droopy unless the quarter panel has been replaced, but everything else back there lines up.

I know Napa sells a kit to re-pin the hinges... this and a door re-alignment are on my to-do for the winter...

I used the re-pin kit and it sucks. I thought the 50resto kit was supposed to replace the entire hinge?

My car has had the hinge replaced. It does good. It was done before I got the car, so I can't say how hard it was.
