Dodge door hinge question and a little bonus for all the 12V fellas...
Guys
Just wondering if any of you know if the hinges off a ram 1500 or 3500 will fit my current pickup truck, I have considered the hinge pin option but after two tries and 18 dollars spent on wrong hinge pins i decided to take apart the door, to notice that the bushings where the hinge sits on the bottom are severely worn out. I have found the hinges here at a local junkyard, but I also found them on ebay for my year truck in particular. except i dont want to wait for my hinges much longer...
And for the bonus.. anyone with a 1996 cummins in need of a particular part? I have dibbs on the door handles..

Because ive tried hinge pins from three different parts sellers,
ive noticed that in the bottom hinge where the door hangs, it has been worn out and rather than the hole be round, it is oval, even with the bushings and pins it still cannot be fixed, i let it get too bad... I found them here at a local junkyard for 35 a piece, of an old man whom i cannot stand... but he has em and i need em, so i gotta bend and break, just hope that they fit my truck and if they have any wear whatsoever... IM TAKIN EM BACK...

I ended up getting pins from Autozone. They were for a late 90's S10 pickup if I remember correctly.
Mine were worn out too and these worked good. I had to weld up the hole on one and redrill it out so the bushing would drive in correctly.

I found the hinges from the dealership
surprisingly for a good price, 78 dollars total for both of them, top and bottom, will dive into this as soon as i get them, thanks guys and gals hehehe
