I am not sure but I think you have to drill out the spot welds on the body and bolt the gm replacement in. If it is sagging I believe you can replace the pins and bushings in it unless it has wore the hole oblong. If it has the new bushing would not last long.

If it were me, I would replace the hinges as a unit. Trying to balance a heavy door and line all that stuff up is rough enough with help, by yourself it's a massive cluster f@#K. My drivers' side is getting sloppy and I will just replace the whole hinge units.

Any chance that someone knows the part number for the driver side door hinges? I need the lower hinge.
Thanks!

My drivers door makes a creeky groaning sound when i open/shut it. Ive tried oiling the hinges but didnt help.

Are the hinges probebly shot? I looked at them and they looked ok at a glance.
