    Default Door sagging

    I did a search and could not find anything.

    All my doors are a little stiff to open and close. Although the other doors do not make noises, the driver's door is squeaking. Is it recommended to change the door hinge? Anyone done it? Any idea how much it costs? Thanks.

    if it's sagging replace the hinge pins, if its stiff look into lubing the door brakes. I sprayed PB blaster back in there and it worked like a charm.

    Default Theres a kit you can get...

    ...that replaces the bushes in the doors. Should fix the play.

    Not too expensive; a bit of a PITA to install. Helps to have 2 people as you need to pull the door off.
