So, a problem part is the door pins that do wear. These can make a popping sound when the door is opened. We have machined these to be slightly larger so that they will take up some slop in the old door stay arms if you are not doing a complete rebuild. They make a very tight fit on the new arms and will not allow the pin to shift in the new arms (the old pins tend to corrode and wear over time).
So you can buy just the pins at $8 a set These just came back from plating (note the current picture shows unplated I'll update tomorrow) and we will be kitting up starting tomorrow. Best deal if you do on have these is the entire kit at $44. This will do both doors and includes the standard kit shown + 2 new pins. SO Who's interested? Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

The pin is simple. There is a cotter pin in the stock version (many are missing), so if it's there remove before tapping it up and out.
The door side will require removal of the panels to get the assembly out. Removal is 2 bolts pretty easy. Once out the springs need to be removed . BE CAREFUL and wear eye protection. Once springs are removed the rollers can be replaced pretty easily. I have found a bench vice helpful for the process. I have a thread here somewhere, I'll try to find it later tonight. -Mark |
