![Replacing My Door Hinge Pins (Sagging Door Fix) - [2000 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE]](/img/n.gif)
I appreciate the fact you did not edit out your mistakes; we all make them and by seeing yours we know what not to do.
Thanks
I replaced the pins in my 2002 GMC Sierra. The door is a lot better but it was still low in the back and did not line up correctly. I took a 4 by 4 and a floor jack, Put the 4 by 4 under the flat part on the bottom of the door towards the rear of the truck, closed it as far as I could with the 4x4 underneath, put the floor jack underneath that and jacked it up literally bending the door slightly. that fixed it and now it works as it should.
Either you had no clue what you were getting into- or spent a lot of extra time to allow the viewer time to absorb and digest just how hands-on this task can be (that's a compliment BTW !!)...
Also placing the pins in the freezer overnight will allow them to slip into the bushings easier.
Great job, great attitude and great example of patience THX !!!
I had never done this before, however in an update we used the bolt-style. The clip-style in this video did not last
"Hinge pinges....He's always gotta start a car while I'm talking. That's the big dummy, he's leaving."
Your awesome man, thank you for the help and a laugh.
Glad you enjoyed
Thanks for the great video. I have hinge pins coming on Monday for my 2002 Silverado with 256,000 miles on it. One suggestion I will make regarding the removal of the hinge pins when you get the bottom ground off and this comes from my experience working on a lot of old houses and having to remove hinge pins that are stuck in place with rust or paint. Clamp a vice grip onto the top of the pin and twist it back and forth a few times just to loosen it up. When it's loose leave the vice grip on and tap the underside of the vice grip upward with a hammer and it will come out pretty easily.
My door has been whistling air for a few days now and driving me crazy, saw the door hinges were loose but had no idea how to change them. Thank you for making a straightforward video on how to replace them. You rock!
You're welcome! BUT watch the follow up video and use the other style
Good information. Best part of the video is at 28:28 when the Myers Manx turns the corner in the background. Also, don't you hate it when you're trying to record a how-to video and your neighbor decides to mow the lawn!
Thanks for watching
More realistic than the other videos I seen. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
Good job
Wish me luck. Im about to do the same job except replace the entire hinge just cause I have no way to grind those pins off. Hopefully this heatwave doesn’t kill us trying to get it done
Very well done and very informative video. I've watched several others on here and was lost or wondering about different things. To me the bolt on one's look a bit easier to do. Thank you very much.
Oh and thanks to your tripod at the beginning.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I saw those C-clips on other vehicles, too. As Murphy's law would have it, mine were pressed in also. I had to grind them. Fun, fun fun. .lol
Thanks for the upload.
C-Clip set didn't last long, we made a follow up video and installed the bolt on version. Here: th-cam.com/video/mCqL222qo1s/w-d-xo.html
@@AxlesGarage cool. I installed the bolt ones too. They just looked like they'd last longer
Kudos to Amanda for great camera work!
Yes she did a great job
Hey I appreciate the video bubba! Thank you!
Glad to help, check the update on that video in the playlist, better options
Man i sure do appreciate your video brother. You just saved me so much money and heart ache lol thank you again
Glad I could help, please see the follow up video
I've done this twice on my 02 Silverado. And I did 1roads hack of fishing foam through the weather stripping
I'm gonna have to look at that hack
The original factory pins have to be ground off for removal. Apparently, this truck has never had door pins replaced before.
Yes, and a follow up video on this in the playlist
June 25, 2022 thank you for the video has a lot of good information
Glad to help
Just for anyone's info on this, if you don't change the hinge pins and your door sags, it will eventually break your door lock actuator, which will eventually damage the switch inside, causing the door ajar light to go on and will drain your battery within a week of not using your vehicle because there will be a constant draw on the battery, signaling the door is ajar
Thanks for the info
Nice video 😊 I changed hinge pins on the passenger door on my Tahoe 4-5 years ago, and recently did the drivers door. But I had forgotten that 4 pins is needed, and get the plessure to do it again on the drivers door in a few days 😂
I used the hinge pins with a nut.
Only thing I would do different from you is to not put on grease before pushing in the bushing.
Agree on the grease, in a follow up video, I replaced with the nut version. Much better
Instead of unhooking wires, what if you lifted door off hinges & hung it with straps & move door only enough to fix hinges? Squeeze the pins down with big channel-lock pliers.
I feel like the door would just be in the way
Thank You for being informative and not hiding the little steps that can be frustrating.Do you recommend the hinges you installed?
NO, I did an update video here: th-cam.com/video/mCqL222qo1s/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for this video! I appreciate you letting us know all the things that worked and didn’t quite work. I’m going to attempt to replace the hinge pins on my daughters 04 Escalade this evening. How long did you have to actually grind the bottoms of the pins before they were able to be punched out? Again thank you and I will definitely be subscribing to your channel!
Glad it was helpful! Not to much grinding to get them out. Easy task with a flap disk. However look in the Suburban playlist as we had to do it a second time with a better type of hinge repair kit.
Thanks for the video. 👍 I’ve got the same issue with the door to my my 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71. It’s ever so slightly off. Maybe using a jack with something to protect the door to keep it in place or held up on bottom of door when putting the door back on hinges if someone does not have a helper? I’m going to try that and see how it goes when I do my hinges.
I did a follow up video, using the kit with the bolt on pins, much better.
Like the k5 blazer on the back.
Thank you, we have lots of K5 videos on the channel.
What year is your K5 88?
I have repaired the hinges on my Suburban 2 times and I never did it this way.
I supported the door from below using a floor jack and jig like in the factory. Jack it up and remove the hinge.
Yep, that works too.
Very good informative video Rob! Liked! I need to do this to my 2000 Chevy 3500hd drivers side door. I'm glad to see also that the Dorman pins seemed to do good. A month later any issues? Or all good?
To be honest, it only lasted a few days. Still sloppy, I think I have to replace the c-shaped brackets as well. They sell them in a kit with the pins.
@@AxlesGarage I noticed with the hinge pin kit I got, the bushing and pin didn't feel tight together anyway, so I am debating on whether I should even go through with it. It doesn't make sense that there would be that much slop in the new bushings. Do you think I should hunt out a better branded set?
yes, thank you for this
My pleasure!
do you still have the white short wheel base denali?
Yes, videos coming soon.... we had some issues with it
great video 👍
Thanks for the visit
OWWWWWW! My freakin' finger!
Thanks for watching
HAVE HAVE YET TO FIND A REPAIR KIT THAT LASTS LONGER THEN A YEAR, I DONT KNOW WHAT KIND OF BRASS if even bras, as the shatter in no time and the door is far worse then it ever was my 1993 k1500 there is no bolts to remove, each half is welded to post an door, i set a 5 gallon oil pail under the door to le it rest on. i dont remove any wires or boot/
We found one in this follow up video here: th-cam.com/video/mCqL222qo1s/w-d-xo.html
@@AxlesGarage my Chevy k1500 has no bolts at all, each side of the hing ir welded to the door and the door post, it one long pin the runs down though all 5 holes on each hinge, there a spline an flat head on one end, that has to be pressed in, the brass bushing ether brakes up as you press it in, or with in a month, a cap is hammered down on top of pin once its in,, the brass bushing brrake into peaces
Part number please
will you please do my truck I'll pay you 🤣
I wish I had the time
HA! Very rare to see an unrehearsed repair job on the tube. Others make it look so simple because it was not their first time. And if we could have two wives, removing and installing the door would be easier. But if you could afford two wives, you could just buy a new truck. Maybe now I'll scare the courage to do this myself...
In all it's any easy fix, look for my follow up video where I use a different style pin.
Does the chick have an onlyfans?
AMANDA LOOKS LIKE A HOTTIE; ILL SUBSCRIBE IF SHE WEARS HEELS IN THE NEXT VIDEO....
You're going to have to be much more creative for that type of request.
