I posted this the other day but I think it was in the wrong topic area.
Bought a 97 terrano and the driver door has sag. Bushes must be gone. On this model it's not possible to but a bushing kit and pin as the hinge is all one.
Cockram nissan Christchurch has quoted $115 per hinge.this seems crazy. I read somewhere that u can grind out the original hinge and modify a different hinge & pin set. Does anyone know anything about this

Top and bottom hinges wear on opposite sides of the pin....if they are the same swap top for bottom.

Alternatively you could get hinges (or entire doors for that matter) cheaper out of wrecked r50 terranos which there are thousands of now

Not a bad idea. I'll give this a try at the weekend and see how it goes
