Driver side door won't stay open. As soon as you open it, and attempt to get out it crashes back into your shins.....a real PITA. It does not close hard, just enough to be annoying because I have to keep pushing it open to get out.

If I replace the lower spring and hinge, does that fix it? Or is there a way to fix it without replacing. 50resto has a hinge and roller assembly for $60.

Thanks

Lambo doors are the only fix.

I shimmed the metal piece that hits the roller and it helped a little bit.

Yours is showing it's age as mine is. I'm just going to replace the whole lower hinge ass'y.
