door hinge repair
I need to fix by drivers door becuase it sags soo bad....but anyways, i know of the hinge kits and what not that you can buy but my question is: Can you take an F-body with a good hinge, cut that hinge off and reuse it on another car? Wasn't sure if this would work so i thought i'd see what you guys have to say. Thanks in advance

Yeah, you could but why? Think about it this way. If you remove one from a car that the door aren't sagging, eventually they will start sagging. Then your going to need to do the fix anyways. Also, for the amount of work your going to need to do to remove them and then put them on your car, it will be much faster and more cost efficient to just buy the hinge kit and get it over with.

The problem with Micro's hinge is the hinge itself. It will need a hinge and hinge kit. The hole in the hinge for the pin is wore oblong and by putting in a new hinge kit will not keep it from sagging.
So if you find a good hinge with true round holes in a junk yard it will work and last a long time with a new hinge kit.
