Is there a bushing kit available for the 96 dodge ram? Doors are getting
difficult to close as they drop down when they open now. Wife is threatening
to take it to the dealership if I can't figure it out. LOL can't afford
those guys. All I seem to be able to find is the complete door hing
assembly.

How difficult is this fix? Any other ideas as to how to fix it?

Thanks in advance, you guys are great.

They are available at any parts store. I believe they are just brass bushings.
I had to drill a couple of the hinge pins out on my van. They are a bitch to
get out. I used a couple of cut off nails (very large ones) for new pins. They
have worked great for years now.
