Door Bushings?
 
Can anyone recommend an after-market supplier of door hinge bushings?

Thanks,
Bob

Umm, for what flavor of Jeep?

'Aftermarket'????

I doubt it, those are pretty specialized, but?.....

Don't you mean "what flavor of anything"? I have door hinges on my house,
car, refrigerator, tool box...

For the Wrangler/CJ type of Jeep, you can buy replacement door hinges
aftermarket. Quality ranges from abysmal to great, and sometimes is related
to price. Try www.4wd.com. For a Cherokee, for example, you can get
replacement oem door hinges or you can maybe get them bushed at a local
machine shop. Sometimes, you can drill out the holes and insert a bigger
pin, but that is iffy.

Saludos cordiales,

Earle

Actually I was wondering the same thing on and off. On my 2002 TJ it has
this softer metal insert thing in where the pin goes. When I was
replacing the door one day I messed it up (bent it a bit) and the door was
stiff for a while until it just mashed itself back into shape I suppose,
as it works fine now.

At the time I was wondering if this was something that was replaceable or
if it mattered. I have concluded with time that it did not matter enough
for me, as it is OK now. Bob's question does have credence tho.

I would recommend to Bob that if he mashed it up and the door pin still
goes in, to just give it a bit of time and see if it works itself out of
being trouble. Mine seemed to.
