Re: door hinges 95 t-bird

You have to take the hinge out to see if it's worn to far to replace just the pins. It's usually just the lower hinges that need to be replaced. If you take the hinge out and find it's too worn to replace the pin then you have to reinstall it and remove it again when you get the new hinge. If you are short on money do it that way and hope for the best. I put a value on my time so just replaced the hinge and got it over with. They take time to replace but if you have a jack to support the door, a set of short 3/8 drive sockets, a flex adapter and a 6 inch extention you can do it yourself and use the money you would have paid the shop to do it to buy the hinge.
