fusion Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I am going to rebuild my door hinges on my 76 280z. Is the Dorman 38397 still a good option? Has anyone been able to source the roller detent pin? One of mine is broken. Does the pin from a 280zx or any other vehicles work? Otherwise maybe I could drill/tap for a shoulder bolt.

walkerbk Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I bought a rebuild kit from a guy on Ebay and everything fit and worked well (bushings were very tight) and then used the instructions below http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/body/doorhinge/index.htm I don't know where to get a replacement detent pin but I replaced my roller with a part I got from tractor supply (a bushing that was almost identical).

Ironhead Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I too used this kit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/322668159056 It worked well, no complaints. I can't help you with the roller detent pin. You might have no choice but to have one machined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
