Door Hinge Bolts

<< < (2/2)

Litch:
There are plenty of places already selling SS door-hinge fixings as a kit.

When I rebuilt my 90 about 7-years ago I rebuilt it using SS fixings throughout (apart from where HS are required of course) and I recall the hinge screws were a problem as they are a strange thread. I think I just fitted a captive nut to fit the thread of the new screws but nowadays there are several people who advertise & sell the complete kits so you may be competing in a crowded marketplace.

BigSi:
Thanks guy for the info. Wasn’t as bad as I thought as the doors had already been off a while back (just a layer of paint to crack). Got some replacement bolts from LR (Ouch!!), and with a ratchet and bit, job done!

They now close and lock with out any force, just trying to sort the door locks out.

“It was a proper job!!!”  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
