Door hinges

Anyone replaced the hinges on the driver/passenger doors? I think my hinges are shot, the doors fly open and don't have that midway-stopping point that they used to have...is it easy to replace the hinges or is it even the hinge that needs replacing?? Any help is much appreciated!

 

It's not the hinges, it's the door-stop! That thin bar in the middle has a bump in it that wears out. Replaceable, from $40-90...

 

Ahh, make sense. Did you replace yours? Any idea of the difficulty?

 

I got one off Ebay several years ago form a legit supplier, but I can't find the info right now. I think it was about $70 OEM.

Note: side-specific part number:

Also check Camelback Toyota on some other Toyota vendors on TW.

 

Super easy. 3 bolts very accessible, 10 min. max.

 

Sweet, thanks for the info!! Price seems a little ridiculous for what it is...

 

Shop around. And it is amazing how fixing one little thing like this that pisses you off every day will make your truck feel like new again.

 

That's awesome, I'll shop around for sure. I hope i get that feeling again from my old truck. I hate it when the door closes on me!!

 

Mine makes a god awful dry fart noise if I don't lube it every so often..

 

A little more then 10 min. The door panel has to come off.

 

I don't recall having to remove mine. But I may just be misremembering. It was several years ago, and I've since sold that truck.
